Background:
This report provided details of the second round of revenue budget monitoring 2019/20. The report noted that, after proposed management action, the forecast outturn for 2019/20 represented a forecast pressure of £6.695 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 progressed.
The report set out an explanation of the pressures being faced and the corrective management action proposed by directorate management teams. The report also stated that the round 2 monitoring was considered by Corporate Management Team on 16 October and in addition to service managers being tasked with formulating a significant package of management action, all members of Corporate Management Team had resolved to exercise much tighter scrutiny and management over expenditure.
