Board of DirectorsJune 2013The Service Improvement and Transformation Team continue to support directoratesin the identification of further savings opportunities.Capital expenditureCapital expenditure in April totalled £169,000 against a plan of £130,000. This smallover spend is due to a number of schemes commencing ahead of plan. The Trust isplanning total capital expenditure of £9.475 million during 2013/14.4. Financial Risk RatingThe Trust’s overall financial risk rating as at 30 April was a rating of 4. This strongperformance reflects the favourable variance to plan for month one; however theexpectation is that the Trust will end the year with a rating of 3. The best possible(lowest risk) rating is a rating of 5.5. ActivityOverall, activity was <strong>1.</strong>9% above budgeted levels in April, continuing the trend seenthroughout 2012/13. The key pressures in relation to non elective activity remain, withactivity above the 2008/09 threshold attracting only 30% of the PbR tariff.Activity in April was 3.3% above that seen in April last year, with elective admissionsand emergency department attendances being the main drivers of this. Outpatient andnon elective activity were both below the same period last year.6.

Expenditure during April totalled £20.7million against a budget of £20.4 million, being an adverse variance of £0.4 million.These variances are mainly attributable to a number of additional activities that theTrust has resourced and implemented to support the management of emergencypatient flow given the ongoing pressures experienced.
