Agenda item

To receive the report of the Responsible Financial Officer (R.F.O).

The Committee received and considered the report of the Responsible Financial Officer (RFO).

A Member raised a question regarding the low level of income from burials and was advised it was affected by the number of ashes interments rather than a coffin burials and the relatively low number of burials since April.

A Member also was concerned that the Food & Drink Gross Margin was close to zero and with the neighbouring shop to open as a café what further effect that would have. The Deputy Town Clerk advised that the Venue & Events Officer was preparing a business plan  for the next meeting of the committee on 13 November 2023.

Resolved:

That, the report be noted.
