The Cabinet considered the report of the Interim Director of Finance which set out the capital position for 2013-14 at Period 2 (May 2013) and actions to minimise risk.

The Chief Executive indicated that in relation to the Capitalisation Scheme, Government had yet to publish this and it was not yet known if the Scheme would be offered across the Country. He would inform Members once the scheme and guidance had been published.

(3)  the additional slippage from 2012-13 of £0.246m and the anticipated slippage of £1.150m into 2014-15 be approved;

(4)  the re-profiling of two major schemes into 2014-15, totalling £12.6m; and

(5)  the receipt of additional Local Sustainable Transport grant of £0.100m be approved.
