3.(a) Amounts Reported for Resource Allocation Decisions <strong>2011</strong>/12<br />

The analysis of income and expenditure by service on the face of the Comprehensive Income and Expenditure Statement is that specified by the Service Reporting Code of Practice. However, decisions<br />

about resource allocation are taken by the <strong>Council</strong> on the basis of budget reports analysed across Service portfolios. These reports are prepared on a different basis from the accounting policies used in the<br />

financial statements.<br />

In particular:<br />

The cost of retirement benefits is based on cash flows (payment of employer’s pension contributions) rather than current service cost of benefits accrued in the year.<br />

The income and expenditure of the <strong>Council</strong>’s principal portfolios recorded in the budget reports for the year are as follows:-<br />

Portfolio Income and Expenditure<br />
