As detailed in the recommendations.

Councillor Johnson introduced the report which summarised changes made to the Capital Programme 2021/22 since it was set in December 2020 to the end of Month 4 (July 2021), along with expenditure to date and projected outturn.

The Capital Programme had seen a net increase in budget of £29.595m during the period which comprised of:

• Net  budget increase in the programme of £14.360m (Council Fund £21.975m, Housing Revenue Account £7.615m)
• Introduction of Carry Forward from 2020/21 of £15.635m (Council Fund £15.635m, Housing Revenue Account £0.000m)
• Identified savings at Month 4 (Council Fund) (£0.400m)

Actual expenditure was £25.355m.

Capital receipts received in the first quarter of 2021/22, along with savings identified, totalled £0.683m.  That gave a revised projected surplus in the Capital Programme at Month 4 of £2.795m (from an opening funding position surplus of £2.112m) for the 2021/22 – 2023/24 Capital Programme, prior to the realisation of additional capital receipts and/or other funding sources.

RESOLVED:

(a)       That the report be approved;

(b)       That the carry forward adjustments be approved; and

(c)        That the additional allocations be approved.
