Item 6(a) PENLEE HOUSE COMMITTEE - 23 NOVEMBER 2020 REPORT FOR DECISION REVIEW OF PENLEE HOUSE DRAFT BUDGET 2021-22 AND FORECAST BUDGET TO 2023-24 Recommendation: That the Penlee House Committee recommends this draft budget and forecast budgets to the Finance & General Purposes Committee. Background: This paper is to be read in conjunction with Item 6a Appendix 1: Penlee House draft budget 2021-24 and Item 6a Appendix 2: Penlee House Reserve Position Income It is more complex than usual to make predictions about the year ahead, as Covid-19 has impacted everything that we do. Members will also note that from 2022, two major sources of regular funding: the Cornwall Council Agency Fee and the NPO funding from Arts Council England (via Cornwall Museums Partnership) will cease. • We have based visitor numbers on 2019 numbers for 2021-22. This may be ambitious given that Covid restrictions may still be in place next year. However, 2020 does not give us enough meaningful data to base our predictions on at this stage. Admission fee increases were discussed at the Penlee House Committee meeting on 28 September and it was decided not to increase admission charges. • We have budgeted for a 2.5% increase on visitor numbers year on year from 2022-23. • We have based retail income on 2019 levels and budgeted for a 5% increase year on year, again, taking into account the possible impacts of Covid and restrictions on visitors. However, in summer 2021, we have budgeted an additional £10,000 income from the sale of a book to accompany the Laura Knight exhibition. • Arts Council NPO funding (received from Cornwall Museums Partnership) ends in March 2022 although they have indicated that this date may be extended and there may be additional funding, but we have no details of this. This means that from April 2022, the income for audience engagement and learning work (and apprenticeships) will decrease significantly • The Cornwall Council agency fee ends in March 2022, to compensate for this, money is being moved from reserves from the Agency Buffer fund. Page 1 of 3 Item 6(a) • We have assumed that the increase in visitor numbers will hopefully be reflected in café franchise income, which has been increased by 5% • Grant income appears as zero – this does not mean that we do not expect any grant income, but these income lines are a mechanism for accepting successful funding bids. Funding bids will align with the objectives of the strategic plan. Expenditure We have been mindful to make cost savings wherever possible in the budgets looking ahead and have made the following considerations. • Where appropriate, 2% inflation has been added to expenditure lines • Salary costs are based on current staffing levels and include statutory contributions as well as an allowance for the annual Pension Deficit Contribution and predicted annual increments. • Central admin is no longer recorded separately in any of the Council budgets as it is a given that the support services team provide HR, finance, administrative and other support to all service areas. Removal of this line also provides a clearer picture of salary and related costs. • Staff travel has been set lower for 2021-22 because of the impact of Covid, and this will be reviewed for subsequent years • The grant-funded post (apprenticeship) and training for this post was NPO funded, which ends in 2022 • The telephone system has now been successfully changed to a new provider which has reduced the overall spending on phones • The broadband has changed to a new provider – reducing costs • Community educational activities are set at £2,000 per year. However, due to NPO investment and match funding, the actual amount spent on educational activities over the last four years has been in the region of £14,500 (made up of £7,500 funding from Cornwall Museums Partnership and £5000 in match funding that is fundraised). • We have reduced the exhibition line in 2021-22 by £8,000 by postponing the John Tunnard exhibition. • Following Council adopting the Climate Action Plan we have switched to renewable energy sources. This will have an impact on expenditure with current renewable sources being around 2p per Kw/h more. • We have increased costs for cleaning materials due to the impact of Covid. • We are keeping marketing spend low, but will review this as we go forwards. Funds/Reserves See Item 6a_Appendix 2_Penlee House Reserve Position for the reserves position for the current financial year. Looking ahead we propose the following recommendations for the reserves: Page 2 of 3 Item 6(a) • The Penlee House Fab/Plant reserve will reduce to £27,277.72 • We propose continuing to put £10,000 into the building reserve each year, as the building ages. • We propose putting £10,000 into the exhibitions fund whilst we still have the Agency fee from Cornwall Council. • We propose not to add to the Agency Buffer fund next year in order to keep expenditure down. We propose to use the amount currently standing in that reserve to offset the impact of the loss of the agency fee in the financial years 2022-23 and 2023-24. This is shown as ‘income from reserves’ in these years. We continue to work on ways to mitigate the loss of the agency fee.
