Additional documents:

Decision:

The Cabinet considered a report of the Executive Director (Finance & Resources) summarising the current forecast position at this half-way point of the financial year and reinforcing the need to make some difficult choices and take decisive action.

 

Resolved:

 

1. That the continued unprecedented levels of reported financial pressure and challenges right across the local government sector, as set out in Appendix 1 to the submitted report, be noted.

 

In respect of the 2023/24 Revenue Budget Performance, as set out in appendix 2 to the report:

 

2. That the forecast outturn for 2023/24 for the General Fund and the Housing Revenue Account as at 30 September 2023, be noted.

 

3. That the plans and intentions to try to reduce the forecast overspend of the Council’s revenue budget for 2023/24, be noted and that the Chief Executive and Executive Director (Finance & Resources) continue to explore all opportunities within their delegated powers and authority to improve the financial position by the year-end.

 

In respect of the 2023/24 Capital Budget Performance as set out in appendix 3 of this report:

 

4. That the expenditure to date and the forecast outturn as at 30 September 2023 and its financing, be noted.

 

5. That the requested changes to the capital investment programme for 2023/24 and future years, as set out in Appendix 3 to the report, be approved.

 

6. That the Corporate Performance Report as at 30 September 2023, as set out in Appendix 4 to the report, be noted.

 

7. That the planned budget transfers (virements) of £2,710,000 from earmarked reserves, as set out in the report, be approved.

To provide detailed financial information on the financial performance of the Council. The report sets out the key variances by budget holders and associated management action being implemented to address the identified issues.

 

Other Options

 

The Council could choose to monitor its budgetary performance against an alternative timeframe, but it is considered that the current reporting schedule provides the appropriate balance to allow strategic oversight of the budget by Councillors and to also formally manage the Council’s exposure to financial risk.

 

 

Note: The decisions in resolutions 1 to 8 above constitute an Executive function and the recommendation in 9 above constitutes a Council function.

This matter is not eligible for call-in.

Treasury Management Report - Mid Year (2023/24) pdf icon PDF 1015 KB

Report of Executive Director (Finance and Resources)

Additional documents:

Decision:

The Cabinet considered a report of the Executive Director (Finance and Resources) presenting the mid-year Treasury Management Report covering the treasury management activity for the period from April to September 2023 and compliance with the treasury management strategy for that period.

 

Resolved:

 

1. That the Treasury Management Mid-Year Position report for 2023/24, be approved.

 

2. That it be noted that the Treasury management activities were carried out in accordance with the CIPFA (The Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy) Code of Practice for Treasury Management in the Public Sector during the period from April to September 2023.

 

3. That it be noted that the loan and investment portfolios were actively managed to minimise cost and maximise interest earned, whilst maintaining a low level of risk.

 

4. That it be noted that £3.130m of interest and income distributions for all investments were earned during this six-month period at an average rate of 4.41%. This is 0.32% lower than the average SONIA rate (Sterling Overnight Index Average) and 0.39% lower than the average bank rate. Also, the value of the externally managed funds decreased by a net of £0.561m due to changes in the unit price, giving a combined overall return of 3.62%.

 

5. That it be noted that the level of borrowing from the Public Works Loan Board (PWLB) (excluding debt relating to services transferred from Essex County Council on 1st April 1998) remained at £347.3m (Housing Revenue Account (HRA): £74.2m, General Fund: £273.1m) during the period from April to September 2023 at an average rate of 3.46%.

 

6. That it be noted that the level of financing for ‘invest to save’ schemes decreased from £8.22m to £8.13m during the period from April to September 2023.

 

Reasons for Decisions

 

The CIPFA Code of Practice on Treasury Management recommends that Local Authorities should submit reports regularly. The Treasury Management Policy Statement for 2023/24 set out that reports would be submitted to Cabinet quarterly on the activities of the treasury management operation.

 

Other Options

 

There are many options available for the operation of the Treasury Management function, with varying degrees of risk associated with them. The Treasury Management Policy aims to effectively control risk to within a prudent level, whilst providing optimum performance consistent with that level of risk.
