Minutes:
The committee received the report which provided an overview of the Cheshire East Council provisional outturn for the financial year 2022/23 and the financial performance of the Council relevant to the committee’s remit.
Concerns were raised in respect of the strategic risk across adult social care being downgraded and assurance was sought that the council did not lose sight of those risks. Officers offered reassurance that those elements contributing to risk were being managed and mitigations had been put in place. However there was recognition that there was still potential risk
In respect to the reference in the report to support for Ukrainian and Afghanistan schemes, officers reported that discussions were ongoing with the Home Office on their approach to placement of asylum seekers and an update would be provided to the appropriate committee in due course.
In respect of the request for a breakdown of mechanisms and how the Council recoups deferred debt, officers reported that discussions were ongoing with the finance team on debt collection. A consultation on the charging policy which would be presented to committee at a future date would contain proposals in respect of changing the point at which the Council started charging and the implications of that for debt.
