Report of the Chamberlain and the Director of Community and Children’s Services. Minutes: The Committee considered a joint report of the Chamberlain and the Director of Community and Children’s Services in respect of the Revenue and Capital Budgets. This report had been deferred from the last meeting of the Barbican Residential Committee on 14th December 2015, following queries from Members in respect of capital charges.
The revised report sought to address these queries and Members noted that the accounts were produced in accordance with CIPFA Guidelines, whereby the treatment of capital charges created a deficit. The Head of Financial Services explained that all budget reports were presented to Service Committees in the same format. However, Members’ comments were duly noted and would be passed to the Chamberlain for further consideration.
In concluding, Members were pleased that the presentation of the figures in this revised report had progressed to a more understandable format. The Head of Financial Services invited Members to contact him directly, should they have further queries.
RESOLVED – that,
1. The Provisional 2016/17 Revenue Budget be approved for submission to the Finance Committee.
2. The Draft Capital Budget be approved.
3. The Chamberlain be authorised to revise these budgets to allow for further implications arising from departmental reorganisations and other reviews arising from corporate projects. |
