2022/23 Revenue Budget, 2022/23 Capital Programme and Medium Term Financial Plan 2022/23 TO 2025/26 (JW)

Minutes:

The Head of Finance informed Members of an amendment to paragraph 30 of the report which should have read “The reduction in reserves of £320k” not £295k as stated in the report.  She then went onto highlight some key points in the report for the Members attention.

 

Members asked whether the energy price rises would have an impact on the budget.  The Head of Finance reported that she has not been made aware of any changes from the Property Team, but that she would speak to them.

 

Members also asked whether the Covid Reserves could now be redistributed.  The Head of Finance reported that this would be discussed at the May Authority meeting when she would be bringing a report on the 2021/22 outturn position.

 

The recommendations as set out in the report were moved, seconded, voted on and carried.
