Agenda item

To receive the report of the Responsible Financial Officer (RFO).

The Committee received and considered the report of the Responsible Financial Officer (RFO) which contained detailed income and expenditure statements for the whole of the Council’s approved budgets and management accounts for the period 1 April 2022 – 31 March 2023, along with an update on the Council’s investments.

Also covered were the financial implications from the spending Committees and a proposed charge for engraved pebbles at the Children’s Windrush Cemetery Memorial Garden.

Members were pleased the Council’s accounts were very healthy; they were supportive of funding an Oxford Playhouse event at the Leys from the subsidised letting budget and in inviting providing funds for ‘Nature NOW’ from the Youth Services Grant, subject to an application for £2,400 being received.

Resolved:

1.      That, the report be noted and the management accounts for the Council for the period 1 April 2022 – 31 March 2023 be approved and,

2.      That, the Council’s investments as detailed in the report be noted and,

3.      That, the recommendations of the spending committees as detailed in the report be agreed including funds towards an Oxford Playhouse event and funds towards NOW and,

4.      That, the proposed charges for children’s memorial garden stone engraving be agreed.
