Decision details

DECISIONS (NON-KEY)

1)  Cabinet NOTED the financial position on the Capital programme to 30 June 2019 and the year-end forecast.

2)  Cabinet APPROVED the additional allocated spend for Disabled Facilities Grants (DFGs) of £67k, increasing the budget for 2019-20 to £493k as noted in paragraph 6.4 of the report.

3)  Cabinet APPROVED an increase to the Melton Country Park Budget by £10k to £37k using funding received from The Ministry Of Housing Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) for the purpose of parks as noted in paragraph 6.6 of the report.

Reasons for recommendations:

The Council, having set an agreed Budget at the start of the financial year, needs to ensure the delivery of this Budget is achieved. Consequently there is a requirement to regularly monitor progress so corrective action can be taken when required which is enhanced with the regular reporting of the financial position.
