Background:

This report presented the results of the first round of revenue budget monitoring 2019/20. The report noted that, after management action, the forecast outturn for 2019/20 represented a forecast pressure of £6.262 million. Management action plans were being formulated by directorate management teams and it was anticipated that this figure would be reduced significantly as the year progresses.

The report also provided details of irrecoverable debts which had been incurred and were required to be written off with no impact on the revenue budget monitoring.
