The Director of Finance and Business Improvement introduced the report and highlighted that the information covered the period up until 31 March 2020, so did not include the financial impact of Covid-19.

 

The Committee were informed that there was a Revenue underspend of £361,000 with Capital slippage at £2.6million. The slippage would be spent in the current or future financial years.

 

The Equalities and Corporate Policy Officer stated that five of the eight targeted indicators had achieved the quarter four target; with 70% of all indicators having achieved an improvement from the same quarter the previous year and a 60% improvement from the quarter three position.

 

Under the priority of Safe, Green and Clean, the percentage of household waste sent for reuse, recycling and composting missed the target by more than 10%. It was noted that the Council would continue working with Biffa to improve education concerning contamination.

 

Under the priority of Homes and Communities, two indicators achieved within 10% of the target and the number of households housed through the housing register missed the quarter four target by three households. This was due to a reduction in vacant properties from providers. It was noted that 55.77% of successful relief duty outcomes were achieved against a target of 60%.

 

Of the seven annual outturn indictors, five met the annual target, one achieved within 10% of the target and one missed by more than 10% of the target. Of the five targeted indicators for Homes and Communities, three met target and two achieved within 10%.

 

 

RESOLVED: That

 

1.  The Revenue position as at the end of Quarter 4 for 2019/20, including the actions being taken or proposed to improve the position, where significant variances have been identified, be noted;

 

2.  The Capital position at the end of Quarter 4 be noted; and

 

3.  The Performance position as at Quarter 4 for 2019/20, including the actions being taken or proposed to improve the position, where significant issues have been identified, be noted.
