1. Approval granted that the full year forecast position for the 2015/16 revenue budget and capital investment programme be noted.
2. Approval granted that the forecast position on the Council's reserves be noted.
3. Request Council approve the set aside of £100,000 from in-year revenue underspends to fund one-off capital payments to secure recurrent revenue savings on ICT contracts.
4. Request Council approve the use of £39,000 held in reserves for the former NEETs programme to invest in the Town Centre Grants Programme and a further sum of £61,000 be funded from in-year savings.
5. Request Council approve the use of £36,000 from in-year revenue underspends for capital investment in Christmas lighting for the town centre and Market Walk.
6. Request Council approve the Single Front Office Apprenticeships at an estimated cost of £56,000 for two years, and that the unspent budget at 2015/16 year-end be carried forward in an earmarked reserve.
7. Request Council approve the proposed additions and re-profiling of the Capital Programme to better reflect delivery in 2015/16. This requires £166,000 revenue financing of the CCTV Programme to be brought forward from 2016/17 and 2017/18, which would be financed from a reserve earmarked for capital financing. In addition it is recommended that the budget for revenue financing of CCTV should be increased by £85,000, to be met from the forecast underspend.
