Minutes:

Duration of MEetingThe Director of Finance and Business Improvement addressed the Committee on this item, and outlined the key areas in the report which included:

·  A drop in the projected overspend in Temporary Accommodation for the Housing Service.

·  An increase in the projected overspend for Mote Park Café.

·  Treasury management had performed poorly due to low interest rates.

·  Street Naming and numbering income had increased due to an increase in development in the borough.

·  Members allowances had decreased as many members are past the statutory retirement age and therefore the council is not liable to pay National Insurance Contributions.
