Decision details

Councillor Worden, Chair of the Strategy and Resources Committee reported the recommendations of the Strategy and Resources Committee on the Performance and Financial Management for Quarter 1 of 2019/2020 (circulated previously).

In response to a question, the Head of Resources advised that the forecast overspend for Operational Services was largely due to the number of missed collections and the employment of additional staff.  As the Chief Executive had previously advised, a full Vanguard systems review of this service area  was being undertaken to address issues such as missed collections and fleet capacity.  The Quarter 1 overspend was mitigated with the savings achieved from the Works and Recycling Shared Savings scheme.

It was moved by Councillor Worden and seconded by Councillor Crabb that “minute 27 (f) of the meeting of the Strategy and Resources Committee held on 5^th August 2019 be adopted”.

RESOLVED that minute 27 (f) of the meeting of the Strategy and Resources Committee held on 5^th August 2019 be adopted.
