The Committee considered a report providing the provisional outturn for 2018/19.

 

Members noted the latest projected overspend of £3,192,000 on controllable expenditure at the end of 2018/19.  The Head of ECHS Finance reported that the vast majority of the overspend would be managed through growth built into the Medium Term Financial Strategy.

 

In response to a question concerning underspends arising from vacant positions, the Head of ECHS confirmed that vacancies were being advertised and that the underspends arose as a result of elements of delay in parts of the recruitment process.

 

Members welcomed the increased usage of the Children’s Centres and the increased income being generated.

 

RESOLVED: That the Portfolio Holder be recommended to endorse the 2018/19 provisional outturn position for the Education, Children and Families Portfolio.
