Decision details

The Director of Resources submitted a report reviewing the final outturn of the 2022/23 capital programme for this Committee and seeking member approval for the slippage of some capital scheme budgets from the 2022/23 financial year to the 2023/24 financial year.

Members were reminded that the total approved budget for this Committee’s capital programme of 19 schemes was £2,433,740.  Later in the year the capital programme budget was revised to £844,060 in respect of 18 schemes.  This followed a review of progress on all schemes in the capital programme and included moving budget of £479,440 on 5 schemes into the 2023/24 financial year and the deletion of 1 scheme.

Members were informed that the actual expenditure on this Committee’s capital programme was £677,184, which is 80.2% of the revised estimate budget.

Of the 18 schemes in the revised capital programme 9 were completed in year. The remaining 9 schemes were not completed in-year, with 8 of these resulting in slippage from the 2022/23 financial year in to the 2023/24 financial year totalling £165,500.

It was noted that a further spend of £5,710 is needed on the Ribblesdale Pool Filter and Tile Work scheme (FLPIP) in 2023/24 in order to bring this scheme to satisfactory full completion.

RESOLVED THAT COMMITTEE:

Approve the slippage of £165,500 as set out at paragraph 3.4 of the report.
