The Council’s budget position for both revenue and capital needs to be monitored on a regular basis to ensure that there is control on the Council’s overall spend against its set budgets. The report will cover the details of spending and explanations for variances for each Department against these set budgets, and proposed action to achieve a balanced budget if required
The Executive will be asked to note the current position of the Council’s Revenue and Capital budget for 2007/08 and, if necessary, agree proposals to achieve a balanced budget at the year end
