Issue - meetings

The Senior Accounting Technician submitted a report on the Period 5 Budget Monitoring position as at the end of August 2018.

It was noted that the number of cremations was more than forecast for the year to date and that there was a healthy variance. There had been an underspend on staffing due to illnesses and people moving on, however the adverse weather conditions over the summer meant that emergency repairs to the footpaths were necessary.

The Chapel refurbishment programme was not yet complete, the toilets being an ongoing job but the project was still within budget.

RESOLVED –

That the report be noted.

REASON FOR DECISION

To keep the Joint Committee informed about the financial performance of the Crematorium.
