Minutes:
Cabinet considered the head of finance’s report on the treasury outturn in 2017/18. The report had been considered by the Joint Audit and Governance Committee, which was satisfied that the treasury activities had been carried out in accordance with the treasury management strategy and policy.
Cabinet welcomed the report, noting that performance had exceeded targets.
Linked to longer term income from investments, Cabinet noted that the leader had asked officers to explore capital investments, linked directly to the benefit of residents and the council’s statutory duties, that also returned an income for the council. Cabinet welcomed this but recognised that this would require an amendment to the treasury management and investment strategy.
RECOMMENDED to Council to:
(a) approve the treasury management outturn report 2017/18; and
(b) approve the actual 2017/18 prudential indicators within the report.
