Capital spending and financing 2006/07

1 Introduction

1.1 This Appendix reports that:

    · capital schemes costing £164.4m were committed during 2006/07

    · this left schemes costing £60.0m not committed by 31 March 2007 which will be carried forward to 2007/08, subject to Cabinet's approval

    · capital expenditure of £173.2m was incurred in 2006/07 and this can be financed within available resources

    · it is proposed to borrow £22.9m for approved schemes under the Prudential Code for Capital Finance for which Government grant support will not be available

    · capital receipts of £24.2m were achieved from the sale of assets in 2006/07.

2 Capital programme for 2006/07

2.1 Table 1 below shows that 73.3% of the capital programme for 2006/07 of £224.4m was started in the year.

2.2 The majority of the capital programme is controlled on a `starts' basis whereby the full estimated cost of the scheme is charged against the service's capital cash limit for the year in which the scheme is started. Some schemes, such as lump sum provisions and block votes, are controlled on an `expenditure' basis. In those cases, the amount actually spent in the year is charged against the cash limit. The total of £224.4m shown in Table 1 for the schemes committed in 2006/07 is an aggregate for both `starts' and `expenditure' schemes.

2.3 An analysis by service of the figures in Table 1 is provided in Annex 1.

2.4 Annex 2 shows the adjustments made to the original published capital programme for 2006/07 to reach the `approved value of the capital programme' shown in Table 1.

2.5 Annex 3 lists the schemes committed in 2006/07.

3 Carry forward of schemes not committed by 31 March 2007

3.1 The Executive Member for Policy and Resources agreed in April 2007 that capital schemes that were planned to start by 31 March 2007 but which, for various reasons, will not be committed until 2007/08 should be carried forward to 2007/08. This agreement in principle was subject to the cost of such schemes being accommodated within services' approved capital programme cash limits. Details of the schemes that it is now proposed should be carried forward in accordance with that decision are included in Annex 4. Each service has sufficient resources within their capital programme cash limits to allow all the proposed schemes to be carried forward.

3.2 The total value of schemes and cash limit to be carried forward is £60.0m. This includes £20.3m of Children's Services schemes for which approval to carry forward to 2007/08 has previously been given during the year.

3.3 As Table 2 shows, the proportion of the 2006/07 programme that has been committed in the year, at 73.3%, is lower than has been achieved since steps were taken during 2001 to improve the delivery of the programme. Even so, a substantial programme of £164.4m has still been committed in 2006/07. More would have been committed in the year but for reasons outside the control of the County Council and if it had been possible to complete preparatory work to achieve value for money for late Government announcements on allocations.

3.4 In total, approval is now sought to carry forward 67 individual schemes and block provisions (59 a year ago). In addition, approval has already been given in January and April 2007 to carry forward 20 Children's Services schemes (8 a year ago).

3.5 The main reasons for the increase in schemes to be carried forward are:

    · £9.6m of the Government's grant allocation of £10.2m in 2006/07 for children's centres has not been committed. This allocation was not added to the Children's Services capital programme until March 2006. It will be aggregated with a further Government allocation of £8.5m for children's centres in the 2007/08 capital programme

    · changes in scope, brief and planning of a number of Children's Services schemes for schools which meant that it was necessary to defer them to 2006/07, including the proposals to rationalise and improve primary school provision in Hedge End at a cost of £10.0m. These delays had been identified earlier in the year and the revised plans were built into the new four-year capital programme for 2007/08 to 2010/11 which was approved in February 2007

    · a £5.3m increase in the amount to be carried forward for capital repairs funded from local resources and Government grant. This includes £1.6m for capital repairs funded by the Dedicated Schools Grant to be carried forward to 2007/08 subject to the approval by the Schools Forum of an increased limit for central spending in 2007/08

    · delays in the £5.0m IT Services scheme to replace the Castle telephone system and implement an Enterprise licence agreement for IT infrastructure. This scheme was added to the capital programme in December 2006. The telephone system is dependent on progress on other network replacement work at the Castle and on external suppliers. Implementation of the licence agreement has been delayed pending the installation of new servers

    · Adult Services only committed 64% (£4.4m) of their increased capital programme for 2006/07 which was approved following a review by Cabinet in July 2006.

3.6 The reasons for not committing each individual scheme during the year are listed in Annex 4.

4 Capital expenditure and financing 2006/07

4.1 Total expenditure actually incurred in 2006/07, arising from the capital programme for 2006/07 and earlier years, was £173.2m. This is £18.9m or 9.9% lower than the revised estimate for 2006/07. The timing of capital expenditure flows between financial years is often difficult to predict. The delays in committing a significant proportion of the capital programme for 2006/07 will have reduced the level of payments in the year. In addition, improved arrangements were introduced in 2006/07 for reviewing the profile of capital expenditure over financial years for property-related schemes, which is likely to have resulted in a one-off reduction in the level of capital expenditure.

4.2 An analysis of the expenditure of £173.2m by service and type is included in Annex 5.

4.3 The proposed method of financing this expenditure is set out in Table 3 below:

4.4 The revised estimates of capital expenditure flows and capital resources agreed by Cabinet in February 2007 included the use of unsupported borrowing of £4.9m in 2006/07 to meet a forecast temporary shortfall of resources pending the receipt of capital resources in 2007/08 and later years. In the event, the lower level of actual capital expenditure in 2006/07 has removed the need for any temporary unsupported borrowing. Instead, it is possible to repay the temporary borrowing of £1.9m raised in 2005/06 and to make a contribution of £1.4m to the capital reserve.

5 Borrowing

5.1 Since 1 April 2004, local authorities have been permitted to borrow for capital purposes without specific approval from the Government, provided their actions meet the requirements of the Prudential Code for Capital Finance introduced by the Local Government Act 2003. Such borrowing does not attract any support from the Government towards the repayment and interest costs, which fall wholly on the County Council's own resources. Cabinet agreed criteria for the use of `prudential borrowing' in November 2003, with revisions in February 2006. Since then, its use has been agreed for a number of capital schemes, primarily on an invest-to-save basis. It is proposed that a total of £22.9m is borrowed in 2006/07 for these schemes, as summarised in Annex 6, in accordance with the approved criteria. The unsupported borrowing in previous years for two schemes, at Crestwood College of Business and Enterprise and Chiltern Primary School, can be repaid following the completion of the capital receipts for those schemes in 2006/07.

5.2 The Code includes a number of indicators intended to illustrate whether local authorities are acting prudently. The County Council's latest position on these prudential indicators following the 2006/07 outturn is summarised in Appendix 6. It shows that the County Council continues to be in full compliance with the requirements of the Code.

5.3 In addition to the prudential borrowing, it is proposed that £39.1m of loans are raised in 2006/07 on the basis of the Government `supported' borrowing allocations which are supposed to attract revenue grant from the Government towards the repayment and interest costs. This is £2.8m less than the revised estimate for Government supported borrowing, as shown in Table 3. This £2.8m relates to capital expenditure which will be incurred in 2007/08 when the unused borrowing allocation of £2.8m will be utilised.

5.4 These borrowing allocations are described as `Government supported' but 2006/07 is the first year in which these allocations will not be fully supported by additional revenue support grant. The Government changed its methodology with effect from 2006/07 for calculating the minimum floor level of grant for authorities, such as the County Council, whose grant increase falls below a floor threshold. Grant entitlements arising from the use of Government `supported' borrowing approvals in 2006/07 and future years will no longer automatically be added to the floor level of grant. Cabinet agreed in February 2006 to continue to use Government borrowing allocations in full for 2006/07 in the hope that the Government would reconsider its decision for future years. As no action has been taken by the Government, Cabinet confirmed in December 2006 that the take-up of `supported' borrowing approvals from 2007/08 onwards will be limited to the level consistent with an annual increase in the capital financing requirement of 2.5%. Unless the Government announces a change of policy in the Comprehensive Spending Review in the autumn, 2006/07 will be last year in which full use will be made of Government supported borrowing allocations.

5.5 The Government has also given £50.4m of capital grants towards expenditure in 2006/07.

6 Capital receipts

6.1 Capital receipts from the sale of land and property totalling £24.2m were obtained in 2006/07. This fell short of the adjusted estimate of £27.1m reported to Cabinet in February 2007. It had been expected that at least one of the £3m to £4m receipts for land sales at Town Centre West and Merton Rise in Basingstoke would be obtained in 2006/07. In the event, both were delayed until 2007/08 and the target for 2007/08 can be adjusted accordingly.

6.2 Services' proposed shares of capital receipts in 2006/07 are summarised in Annex 7. The County Council's policy allows services to retain 25% of capital receipts from the sale of their assets, with up to 100% for approved in/out schemes. Receipts from development account and county farm sales are retained for corporate use unless, in the case of county farm sales, alternative proposals are specifically approved. In accordance with this policy, services are entitled to £17.1m from the capital receipts in 2006/07. Cabinet has previously approved the addition to the capital programme of £15.2m from this amount, including schemes at Crestwood College for Business and Enterprise, John Hunt of Everest Community School, Chiltern Primary School, Blackfield Primary School and Alton Day Services. This leaves a total of £1.9m for which approval is now required for allocation to services, as set out in Annex 7.

6.3 Environment's share of capital receipts in Annex 7 allows for a contribution of £26,000 on a one-off basis, allocated before calculating the 25% share, to finance the second stage of a project due to be carried out over the next two years to improve the digital information available on highway land ownership. This project is expected to provide a rapid payback from the identification of surplus highway land for disposal.
