Decision details

To provide the Cabinet Member with an update of the Council Plan performance position and the revenue budget position of the Corporate Services and Budget portfolio for 2021-22 up to the end of June 2021 (Quarter 1).

That the Cabinet Member notes the report and considers whether there are any further actions that should be undertaken to improve the budget position moving forwards or to address performance, where it has not met the desired level.

The forecast outturn report provides a summary of the expected overall financial performance and use of resources against the Council’s approved budget for the financial year 2021-22. The outturn position supports the development of budgets in both the short and medium term.
Performance information is important as it enables the Council and the public to see how well the Council is delivering services and where it needs to make improvements.
The balance of both the General and Earmarked Reserves support good financial planning.

Not applicable.
