For the Finance Panel to note the City Executive Board response to the 2016/17 Budget Review recommendations.  The Panel may wish to comment on the responses or the budget review process.

 

Minutes:

The Panel noted the responses and restated its support for the recommendations that were not agreed or were agreed in part.  The Panel made the following observations:

·         £1200 of income from commercial filming seemed very small (recommendation 9).

·         That the Panel regretted the response to recommendation 16 and felt that the level of the homelessness reserve should be kept under review.

·         That the response to recommendation 19 did not make sense as it was possible to lock in the prices of multi-year capital schemes when awarding contracts without having the cash available.
