electric (£37,000), transport hire costs (£38,000) plus increased costs for waste disposal (£41,000).  These projected over spends are
partially offset by staff slippage (£41,000).

spends (£6,000).

Projected net over spends on electricity and gas costs within Sheltered Housing (£80,000), decant costs due to burst pipes (£33,000),
non-staff budgets (£8,000) and cleaning costs (£10,000) partially offset by additional staff slippage (£5,000) and  additional housing

provision (£37,000) and recharges (£13,000).
