NORTH AYRSHIRE COUNCIL 
17 March 2026 
Cabinet 
Title:    Capital Programme Performance to 31 January 2026 
Purpose:  To advise Cabinet of progress in delivering the Capital
Investment Programme 2025/26 to 31 January 2026 
Recommendation:  That Cabinet agrees to:
(a)  note the revisions to budgets outlined in the report; 
(b)  note (i) the General Services and HRA revised budgets at 31
January 2026; and (ii) the forecast expenditure to 31 March
2026; 
(c) approve the virement proposal noted within the HRA
programme detailed in appendix 2; and
(d)   note the estimated performance against the Prudential
Indicators set out in the Treasury Management and
Investment Strategy. 
1. Executive Summary 
1.1 The General Services Capital Investment Programme 2025/26 to 2033/34 was
approved by Council on 26 February 2025. The Housing Revenue Account (HRA)
Capital Investment Programme 2025/26 sits within the updated HRA Business Plan
and was approved by Council on 12 February 2025. 
1.2  This report identifies the current programme for 2025/26, taking account of
adjustments made to the initial budgets. The report presents the revised budgets at 31
January 2026 (Period 10) and forecast expenditure to 31 March 2026. 
1.3  At Period 10 the General Fund is forecasting an underspend position of (£0.011m)
against a revised budget of £68.528m. The HRA is forecasting a projected
underspend of (£0.536m) against a revised budget of £41.958m. 
1.4  Within the General Fund, adjustments to funding have resulted in net additions to the
overall capital programme of £3.724m, primarily related to UK Government Grant of
£1.500m for Pride in Place Impact Fund, Vacant & Derelict Land Investment Funding
of £0.893m and Scottish Government Grants for Road Safety and 20mph
Implementation of £0.943m. 
1.5 Reviews of individual project plans have identified several adjustments to the current
profiles. As a result, projects totalling (£16.287m) have been reprofiled for delivery in
2026/27 and beyond. This is primarily related to the new Ardrossan Campus build

based on revised contractor payment profile, Ardrossan Harbour Interchange awaiting
decisions from CMAL and Transport Scotland, Pride in Place Impact Funding late
notification of grant award and the B714 upgrade tender process. These have been
partly offset by the acceleration of £0.070m to 2025/26 from future years. 
1.6  Following the most recent CPAG meeting, (£0.600m) underspend has now been
identified for Montgomerie Park School.  This will be transferred to flexibility fund in
the next period as part of the CPAG actions. 
1.7 Within the HRA Capital Programme, a review of delivery timescales has resulted in
the re-profiling of (£3.135) of works for delivery in 2026/27 and beyond, partly offset
by the acceleration of £0.014m from future years.   
1.8 Ongoing uncertainty arising from inflationary pressures and construction cost volatility
continue to impact on the Capital Programme. Financial risks have been identified
across several high value projects. Council has provided for a degree of mitigation
within the overall 10-year General Services Capital Investment Programme and the
HRA Capital Investment Programme and through additional investment agreed in
relation to the Ardrossan campus. Projects will continue to be monitored closely with
cost increases met initially from the additional flexibility built into the programme.
However, any requirement for further borrowing not met from a funding source will be
a matter for Council to consider. 
1.9 The Treasury Management and Investment Strategy (TMIS) for 2025/26 was
approved by Council on 26 February 2025 and detailed the key performance
indicators under the Prudential Code for Capital Finance in Local Authorities (2021
edition). The current estimated performance indicates that North Ayrshire Council has
operated within the treasury limits and performance indicators set out in the TMIS and
the current capital investment plans remain affordable.

2.8 Ongoing uncertainty and areas of cost risk remain across a number of projects. While
some mitigation was built into the Capital Programme in the form of flexibility budgets
at February 2025, totalling £23.6m over the next few years, cost pressures may
exceed this provision. To further address this risk, Council approved additional
flexibility of £15.0m from 2026/27 on 25 February 2026. These risks will be quantified
as individual projects are financially completed and tendering exercises are finalised,
with the impact on the costs of the programme being monitored and reported to
Cabinet as appropriate. Any requirement for further borrowing not met from a funding
source will be a matter for Council to consider. 
2.9   The movement in Capital Receipts projection is based on an current assessment of
the value and timing of land sale receipts. This is a reduction of (£0.979m) which has
been incorporated into the anticipated Capital Receipts position for 2025/26.

2.17 In addition to the adjustments noted above, Appendix 2 highlights a proposed
virement which is required to transfer the projected underspend in budget from the
External Wall Insulation programme to meet the projected overspend in the Roofing
programme. 
2.18 Cost pressures will continue to be monitored and a review of any potential impact on
the Business Plan and Capital Programme will be undertaken to address any
identified issues. Further information on the progress of all projects can be found in
Appendix 2. 
Treasury Management and Investment  
2.19 The Prudential Code for capital finance in local authorities (2021 edition) requires the
Council to set and monitor performance against specified prudential indicators. The
indicators for the current year were set out in the Treasury Management and
Investment Strategy 2025/26, approved by Council on the 26 February 2025. A
summary of the key indicators and our current estimated performance against them is
shown in the following table. Further details of all the Prudential and Treasury
indicators can be found in appendix 3.

Investments 30.000 30.000 0.000  
2.20 Loans Capital Financing Requirement
The Loans Capital Financing Requirement (CFR) is the underlying borrowing
requirement of the Council. This is currently lower than the approved estimate as a
result of the changes in the profiles of the capital programmes, resulting in a reduced
borrowing requirement for the year.
2.21 Gross Borrowing
Gross Borrowing is projected to be lower than anticipated due to the revised profile of
capital projects and by the continued strategy to utilise internal funds to minimise
borrowing.

Page 10

2.22 Operational Boundary
The Operational Boundary is the maximum which the Council anticipates borrowing to
fund the current year capital programme, building in flexibility for the timing of the
different funding streams and principal repayments. The in-year variance is linked to
the continued use of internal funds and the re-profiling of the capital programme.
2.23 Investments
It is estimated that the Council will maintain an average balance of £30.000m of
internally managed funds and utilise cash balances during the year in support of the
under-borrowed position.  The internally managed funds are primarily invested in call
accounts with banks, Money Market Funds and other UK local authorities.
2.24 It is critical that the Council ensures that its capital investment plans are affordable.
Affordability of borrowing is measured by the percentage of financing costs relative to
the net revenue stream of the General Fund and the Housing Revenue Account
(HRA). As at 31 January 2026, the estimated percentages for 25/26 are 3.5% and
26.3% for the General Fund and HRA respectively. Capital expenditure impacts on
the revenue budget through financing charges so it is essential the Council ensures
the financing costs remain affordable and do not constitute an excessive proportion of
the revenue resources available. From a General Fund perspective, the Scottish Local
Authority average was 6%, therefore demonstrating by comparison the prudent nature
of the current borrowing policy. For the HRA, the Scottish average was 20.1%. The
level of loan charges is deemed prudent and affordable within the framework of the
30-year Housing business plan.
3. Proposals 
3.1 It is proposed that Cabinet agrees to:
(a)  note the revisions to budgets outlined in the report; 
(b)  note (i) the General Services and HRA revised budgets at 31 January 2026; and
(ii) the forecast expenditure to 31 March 2026; 
(c)  approve the virement proposal noted within the HRA programme detailed in
appendix 2; and 
(d)  note the estimated performance against the Prudential Indicators set out in the
Treasury Management and Investment Strategy.

Appendix 3
Treasury Management Performance to 31 January 2026    
Capital Expenditure for both the General Fund and HRA vary from original estimates
due to changes in the profile of projects. Full details of all movements in the capital
expenditure budgets are included in this report.  
The reduction to the Capital Financing Requirement for both the General Fund and
the HRA reflect the change in profile of the capital programme. 
Capital expenditure impacts on the revenue budget through financing charges so it is
essential the Council ensures the financing costs remain affordable and do not
constitute an excessive proportion of the revenue resources available.   From a
General Fund perspective, the latest Scottish Local Authority average was 6.0%,
thereby demonstrating a prudent borrowing policy.   For the HRA, the Scottish
average was 20.1%. The level of loan charges is deemed prudent and affordable
within the framework of the 30 year Housing business plan.

The Council is currently projecting an under-borrowed position of £55.304m due to
the continuing strategy to delay long-term external borrowing by utilising internal
cash balances. 
Liability Benchmark
The liability benchmark is an important tool to help establish whether the Council is
likely to be a long-term borrower or long-term investor in the future and so shape its
strategic focus and decision making. 
The Liability benchmark graph above is used to inform the Council’s borrowing
strategy.  The shaded grey area shows the Councils current debt and the gap
between this and the Liability benchmark line is how much more borrowing the
Council likely needs to undertake to support its current capital plans once taking into
account its balance sheet resources including the net debtor / creditor and useable
reserves.  The above graph indicates that long term borrowing for the period of
around 20 years would be most appropriate to meet the Councils borrowing needs
and mitigate against interest rate risk.

The maturity structure of the debt portfolio at 31 January 2026 is shown below and
shows the period when the Council is required to repay and/or refinance debt. It is
important to ensure a reasonable spread of debt to mitigate against high exposure
levels in respect of refinancing.  The current profile ensures this: 
The reduction in the external borrowing since 31 March relates to maturing loans
during the period to 31 January including a £5.6m LOBO loan which was repaid
when called in May.
