The report also highlighted budgetary areas of risk for factors beyond the Council’s control that may result in potential deviations from budget.

 

Specific mention was given to the projected reduction in the need to take funds from the Housing Revenue Account working balance for the financial year.  The projected working balance would stand at £9.6m, which is above minimum level of reserves.
