It was noted that based on the information available at the end of December 2022, there was a reported £549k underspend. This later repositioned to a £200k underspend--which was not unexpected on a £40m budget.
A discussion took place regarding various underspends that were noted in the report. A Member queried if this meant that the Council was understaffed. The Director responded and said it did not mean that the Council was currently understaffed. Historically, when the vacancies existed, they would have created underspends at that time. However, most of the positions had since been filled.
RESOLVED that the Environment Portfolio Holders be recommended to endorse the 2022/2023 outturn position for the Environment and Community Services Portfolio.
