Report of the Head of Finance, Revenues and Benefits

The Committee received the report as set out on pages 38-43 of the agenda, which asked it to note the overall Council position for the financial year 2018/19 after the second quarter.

In respect of the Capital Programme attached at Appendix 1 of the report, the Committee expressed surprise that there was a reported £23,470 underspend on the CCTV camera scheme, as Members claimed to have been informed previously that all money allocated to the scheme had already been spent. The Committee therefore requested clarification regarding how many cameras have been ordered, how many have already been installed and how many were awaiting installation, as well as clarity on whether the quoted underspend was accurate. It was requested that if the scheme has not been completed by the time of the next meeting of the Committee in February 2019, a report should be brought to that Committee explaining the reasons for any delay.

It was moved by the Chair, seconded by the Vice-Chair and

UNANIMOUSLY RESOLVED THAT:

The contents of the report and Appendix be noted.
