Budget Monitor - Month 4 PDF 256 KB Additional documents:
Decision: Minutes:
1.1.
That the overall forecast revenue
outturn for the General Fund of a £3.3m overspend be
noted. That, in the event of an overall
overspend at the end of the financial year this would be funded
from the one-off corporate contingency reserve in the first
instance, be noted. (Paragraphs 3.1 and 4.12, Table 1 and Appendix
1 of the report)
1.2.
That it be agreed that
£0.45m of in-year corporate funding is applied to the
Environment and Regeneration structural overspend arising due to
the Government shelving plans to introduce locally set licensing
fees. This is a net nil impact overall
as the corporate underspend is reduced, in respect of this applied
funding, by the same amount. (Paragraph 4.5 of the
report)
1.3.
That the increase in development
management pre-application fees required to
cover the additional costs associated with providing this
most valued planning service within the agreed timescales be

report)

That the HRA is forecast to
break-even over the financial year be noted. (Paragraph 3.1, Table
1 and Appendix 1)

with forecast capital expenditure of £114.6m in 2015-16 be
noted. That the drawdown to the Finance
and Resources capital budget from the Invest to Save reserve be
agreed and capital slippage into future years be agreed.
(Paragraphs 6.1 to 6.3, Table 2 and Appendix 2 of the
report). Reason for decision

Patient Feedback - recommendations from the Health and Care Scrutiny Committee mini-review PDF 90 KB Additional documents: Decision: Minutes: Councillor Klute, Chair
of the Health and Care Scrutiny Committee, introduced the
committee’s recommendations following the completion of the
mini scrutiny into Patient Feedback. Councillor Klute advised
that this had arisen out of the GP Appointments scrutiny which
found GPs were not getting the feedback they need when patients are
unhappy. This scrutiny concluded that
the recently introduced Family and Friends test provided feedback
more effectively than other methods and recommended it is taken up
by all health service providers in the borough as quickly as
possible. Councillor Watts thanked Councillor Klute and advised
that the Executive will respond in due course. That the report of the Health and Care Scrutiny Committee be received.
Other options considered – none, other than as detailed in the report and related papers. Conflicts of interest / dispensations granted – none.
