Minutes:

The Cabinet Member for Finance presented the report and thanked officers for their work on their report and officers across the Council for their work keeping on track with the budget. The continuing impact including lost income of the pandemic was shown within the report and it was noted that a net adverse variance was forecasted, however forecasting was difficult as income streams would depend on the ongoing Covid infection levels as well as resident behaviour and any increased demand on services.

The Director of Corporate Services noted that there were some significant additional pressures to come and it would remain a challenging period.

The Leader thanked the officers for their work and for the report and noted the impact of the pandemic and the challenges in financial forecasting.
