Report of the Head of Finance

Presented by the Corporate Portfolio Holder

Minutes:

The Corporate Portfolio Holder presented the report to members, highlighting one particularly high value case where the debtor was subject to a Company Voluntary Arrangement. He advised that the Council may recover approximately one third of the value in this case, however it was prudent to write the amount off at present. He added that attempts would still be made to recover debts which had been written off.

It was moved by Councillor N J Rushton, seconded by Councillor T J Pendleton and

RESOLVED THAT:

a) The write offs over £10,000 as detailed in the report be approved.

b) The amounts written off under delegated powers be noted.

Reason for decision: To comply with proper accounting practices.
