Minutes:
The Portfolio Holder for Finance and Legal Services introduced the report and drew Members attention to Table 1, which detailed the lost income and expenditure and the current budget deficit of £6.243m. Additional services provided during the Covid-19 pandemic were estimated to have cost 1.953m and Government funding of £2.140m had been received. The Government had been approached to assist with funding the lost income. He proposed that the recommendations be agreed by Members.
It was noted that the Scrutiny Committee had not raised any questions regarding the report and the Scrutiny Chairman thanked the Finance staff for compiling the reports whilst coping with additional work during the Covid-19 pandemic.
At the conclusion of the debate, Members were content to note the recommendations of the report.
