Minutes:

The Accountant presented this report, which compared the actual revenue and capital expenditure to 31 January for the Planning Portfolio with the annual budget for the year ending 31 March 2009.

 

Budget shortfall

It was noted that due to the economic downturn there was likely to be a shortfall of approximately £37,000 in the adjusted budget figure for expected Development Control income.

 

Uncommitted grant balances over two year old

The Principal Accountant (General Fund and Costing) explained that it would require the permission of the Finance Portfolio Holder to carry over the uncommitted balances on the Heritage Initiatives Fund and the Historic Buildings Preservation Fund at the end of the financial year. These budgets had been carried over in previous years.

 

Concessionary fares

It was understood that it was difficult to calculate the concessionary fare subsidy and it was possible that the bus companies exaggerated the number of single fare journeys.

 

The Planning Portfolio Holder NOTED the report.
