Resum executiu:
The Financial Monitoring report for the 3rd Quarter of the financial year shows that Surrey Police Group is predicted to be £3.4m under budget by the end of March 2023 based on performance so far. This is based on an approved budget of £279.1m for the year. Capital is predicted to be £4.0m underspent due to the timing of various projects.
La normativa financera estableix que tots els virements pressupostaris superiors a 0.5 milions de lliures han de ser aprovats pel PCC. Aquestes s'inclouen dins d'aquest avís de resolució.

Previsió d’ingressos
The total budget for Surrey is £279.1m for 2022/23, against this the forecast outturn position is £276.7m resulting in an underspend of £2.4m.

| Mes 9 | 3.2 | 275.9 | 279.1 | 275.7 | (3.4) |
The largest element of the underspend is to do with staffing costs. A fixed number of officers (2,217) was budgeted for the entire year however in reality this number is not due to be reached until January thereby resulting in an underspend. In addition, despite efforts being made to recruit the staff vacancies stand at 12%, about 240 posts, which is above the 8% budgeted for resulting in a further saving. The shortage in staff has resulted in additional overtime costs but this has not negated fully the savings in staffing costs.
Workshop and fuel costs are estimated to be £1m over budget by the year end due to inflation although some of this has been offset by £0.5m saving in insurance premiums.
Previsió de capital
The capital plan is forecast to underspend by £4.0m. Most of this is due to underspend in IT projects (£3m) and the estates (£1m). The decision as to whether these will be allowed to be rolled over in to 2023/24 will be taken later in the year.

Riscos
The third quarter of the year has continued to be very challenging in terms of staff recruitment. Whilst this has resulted in an underspend there are gaps in a number of areas leading to increased pressure on remaining staff and impacts risk to performance. This is being kept under review so that risks can be managed.
