Introduction 1.1 This report provides a summary of the financial performance for the period 1 April 2013 to 14 February 2014. 2. Reporting Format 2.1 This report provides a summary of the Council’s financial position. This report, together with detailed monitoring reports on a Service basis, will be referred to the Finance and Audit Scrutiny Committee for detailed scrutiny. 3. Approved Budget 3.1 The 2013-14 budget was approved by council on 7 February 2013 and the detailed service estimates subsequently approved by the Executive Committee on 21 March 2013. These budgets are shown as "Original Annual Budget”, in the attached monitoring statements.

Investment Programme 5.1 The net expenditure budget for the investment programme decreased by £34.1m up to the end of period 10. During period 11 there have been some minor budget changes totalling £0.2m resulting in a total net budget decrease for the year of £33.9m. Previously approved budget changes 5.2 There have been a number of virements, approvals and minor adjustments to expenditure and income totalling £0.2m approved under delegated authority by the Executive Director of Financial Services and Deputy Chief Executive. Budget changed requested 5.3 The following adjustments require approval by the Executive Committee and have no impact on the net expenditure budget: 5.3.1 An increase to gross expenditure and income budgets of £0.75m for the enhancement of cycling and walking routes within the vicinity of the new Southern General Hospital funded by NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde; 5.3.2 An increase to gross expenditure and income budgets of £0.13m to provide cycling and walking improvements at Shieldhall Road and Hurlet Road funded by Renfrewshire Council; 5.3.3 An increase to gross expenditure and income budgets of £0.3m following an agreed contribution from Clyde Gateway to improve public transport facilities; 5.3.4 An increase to gross expenditure and income budgets of £0.412m following an agreed contribution from Community Safety Glasgow towards the Glasgow Operations Centre. Summary Position 6. Revenues 6.1 Council Tax 6.1.1 As previously reported, having completed an updated probable projection at period 8, the actual income expected to be collected from Council Tax is £249.5m in line with the approved budget. 6.1.2 The Council Tax collected to 28 February 2014 amounts to £175.3m. This represents 91.22% of the figure to be collected and is 0.79% ahead of last year’s equivalent collection figure. The target rate of collection for Council Tax this year is 93%. 6.2 Non Domestic Rates 6.2.1 Non Domestic Rates income is allocated to councils as part of the local government settlement and represents a fixed percentage of the overall national pool. It therefore does not vary in relation to the actual amount of cash collected by the council. 6.2.2 The Non Domestic Rates collected to 28 February 2014 amount to £336.0m. This represents 94.15% of the figure to be collected and is 0.03% behind last year’s equivalent collection figure. This position has fluctuated over recent periods and continues to be kept under close review. The target rate for collection for Non Domestic Rates for this year is 96%. 7. General Fund 7.1 Net expenditure is running at 100.5% of profile, representing an overspend of £6.3m related to overspends within Social Work Services and Education Services offset by an underspends in Benefit Payments. 8. Services 8.1 Social Work Services £4.7m 8.1.1 The principal reasons for this overspend relate to homecare, the implementation of the personalisation programme, the lack of available accommodation for homelessness and placements for looked after children. The Executive Director of Social Care Services has identified a number of actions to mitigate these pressures. 8.2 Education Services £2.2m 8.2.1 The principal reasons for this overspend relate to teacher costs within the primary and secondary sectors related to an increase in school rolls. The Executive Director of Education has developed an in year action plan identifying further savings to address these financial challenges. 8.3 Financial Services – Benefit Payments -£0.4m 8.3.1 This reflects a lower level of Council Tax Reduction awarded to date than anticipated. 8.4 Other Services -£0.2m 8.4.1 The remaining services are underspent mainly due to non filling of vacancies. 9. Cost Analysis 9.1 The key variances at period 12 are noted below: Employee costs are overspent by £2.7m (0.5%) mainly in respect of teacher staffing related to rising school rolls. Premises costs are underspent by £0.3m (0.4%) mainly in relation to restrictions in non essential repairs. Transport and plant costs are overspent by £3.4m (16.7%) mainly in respect of client demand within Education and Social Work Services and associated fuel and maintenance charges. Supplies and Services are overspent by £3.3m (1.7%) mainly in respect of higher utility costs for street lighting and equipment costs offset by restrictions in non essential spend. Third party payments are overspent by £4.8m (1.0%) mainly in respect of purchased placements in relation to children, homecare and personalisation costs. Transfer payments are underspent by £0.6m (0.1%) mainly in respect of lower initial demand in respect of the Council Tax Reduction Scheme. Allocations are underspent by £1.3m (20.2%) mainly in respect of additional recoveries in respect of project management and design costs. Income is over recovered by £5.7m (1.0%) mainly in respect of recharges to the capital programme. 10. Trading Operations 10.1 Both Trading Operations are currently operating in line with their budgets with no significant variances. It is expected that they will achieve a break-even position in 2013-14 (excluding FRS 17 retirement benefits costs, which are not included in Trading Operations’ charge-out rates). 11. Service Reform 11.1 The Council has established a comprehensive Service Reform Programme with a view to generating significant efficiencies and savings. Initiatives with a value of £51.9m have been incorporated within Service budgets for 2013-14. Therefore, successful delivery of these anticipated savings is key to Services operating within their annual budgets. 11.2 Overall, the programme is projected to deliver 93% of budget. The current estimated shortfall in the savings target for the overall programme is £3.8m (7%) and mainly relates to a timing delay in the delivery savings related to personalisation. This has been included within the relevant Services monitoring statement. Executive Directors will continue to identify options to mitigate the impact of these shorfalls within their overall budgets.

  • The Influence of Historical Mining on Glasgow's
    Research article Scottish Journal of Geology Published online November 19, 2019 https://doi.org/10.1144/sjg2019-012 | Vol. 55 | 2019 | pp. 107–123 Digging deeper: The influence of historical mining on Glasgow’s subsurface thermal state to inform geothermal research Sean M. Watson*, Rob Westaway & Neil M. Burnside School of Engineering, University of Glasgow, James Watt (South) Building, Glasgow G12 8QQ, UK SMW, 0000-0002-2218-9188;RW,0000-0001-5683-4192; NMB, 0000-0002-4110-2623 * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Studies of the former NE England coalfield in Tyneside demonstrated that heat flow perturbations in boreholes were due to the entrainment and lateral dispersion of heat from deeper in the subsurface through flooded mine workings. This work assesses the influence of historical mining on geothermal observations across Greater Glasgow. The regional heat flow for Glasgow is 60 mW m−2 and, after correction for palaeoclimate, is estimated as c.80mWm−2. An example of reduced heat flow above mine workings is observed at Hallside (c. 10 km SE of Glasgow), where the heat flow through a 352 m deep borehole is c.14mWm−2. Similarly, the heat flow across the 199 m deep GGC01 borehole in the Glasgow Geothermal Energy Research Field Site is c.44mWm−2. The differences between these values and the expected regional heat flow suggest a significant component of horizontal heat flow into surrounding flooded mine workings. This deduction also influences the quantification of deeper geothermal resources, as extrapolation of the temperature gradient above mine workings would underestimate the temperature at depth.
