Decision details

It was resolved –

·                To note the position set out in Appendices A and B of the report in respect of the Authority’s financial performance to date and expected outturn for 2022/23.

·                To note the summary of contingency budgets for 2022/23 as detailed in Appendix C.

·                To note the monitoring of agency and consultancy costs for 2022/23 in Appendices CH, D and DD.

·                To recommend to the Isle of Anglesey County Council that Full Council approve funding of £1.074m from the Council Fund general balances to the delegated schools budget, to cover the additional pay costs above those originally allowed for in the 2022/23 revenue budget.

·                To approve the transfer of the net underspend on homelessness and homelessness prevention estimated at £260k to an earmarked reserve for homelessness and homelessness prevention in future years. This has occurred due to Welsh Government announcing a significant uplift of £373k to the No One Left Out grant.
