The largest element of the underspend is to do with staffing costs. A fixed number of officers (2,210) was budgeted for the entire year however in reality this number is not reached until September thereby resulting in an underspend. In addition despite efforts being made to recruit the staff vacance margin stands at 12%, about 160 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 offset 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 insurance premium savings.

Capital Forecast:

The capital plan is forecast to underspend by £1.3m. Most of this is due to underspend in IT projects and the estates strategy. The decision as to whether these will be allowed to be rolled over in to 2023/24 will be taken later in the year.

Txaus ntshai

The first half of the year has been challenging in terms of staff recruitment. Whilst this has resulted in an underspend there is an increasing risk that some operations may be left short staffed. This is being kept under review so that the risk of areas being stretched can be managed.
