It was reported that the value of the approved Housing Capital Programme was £10,041k with £4,581k funded through the Major Repairs Allowance. There was a total of £160k slippage on the capital funded element of the programme into 2007/08 and an overspend of £176k.

The value of the approved Social Services Capital Programme was £671k of which £205k was grant funded. There had been a total slippage of £16k and a net overspend of £11k.

In relation to the analysis of spending Members questioned details of the following:

· under spend to Foxwood Phase 2 due to delays from United Utilities - it was confirmed was due to the lead in period.

· low take up in relation to Right to Buy - thought to be due to the increase in property prices and valuations.

· £35k overspend on the Morrell House project mainly related to mechanical and ventilation work - this had been considered an appropriate amount in view of the works undertaken.
