2012/13 Revenue and Capital Outturn, Carry Forwards and Significant Variances - Community Wellbeing Portfolio

21/08/2013 - 2012/13 Revenue and Capital Outturn, Carry Forwards and Significant Variances - Community Wellbeing Portfolio

Matter for Decision

The report presented a summary of the 2012/13 outturn position (actual income and expenditure) for services within the Community Development & Health portfolio, compared to the final budget for the year. The position for revenue and capital was reported and variances from budgets are highlighted, together with explanations. Requests to carry forward funding arising from certain budget underspends into 2013/14 were identified. It was noted that outturn reports being presented in this Committee cycle reflect the reporting structures in place prior to the recent changes in Executive portfolios. In light of those changes (together with the requirement to report outturn on the basis of portfolios in place during 2012/13) members of this committee are asked to consider the proposals to carry forward budgets and make their views known to The Leader, for consideration at Strategy & Resources Scrutiny Committee prior to his recommendations to Council.
