WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR HOUSING BY DEPUTY J.A.N. LE FONDRÉ OF ST. LAWRENCE
ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 19th FEBRUARY 2013
Question
In light of the fact that in the Annual Business Plan 2011 the 2010 comparative figure for Sales and lettings had been restated from £2,082,000 (as per the Business Plan 2010) to £775,700 (2011 Business Plan) and that Estate Services had also been re-analysed, could the Minister provide the following information to show how these figures have been changed, and to allow an evaluation of management costs -
- A breakdown of the allocation of costs within the service analysis provided in the Annex to the Business Plan, separately identifying any sub-classifications for any amounts greater than £100,000, and ensuring that the totals clearly reconcile to the individual services analysed in the Business Plan (Planned Maintenance, Operations, Voids Refurbishment, Response Repairs, Assisted Living, Tenant participation, Sales and Lettings, Financial Management rent and fee collection)?
- For each of the sub-categories of Estate services provide the amount allocated to each of these classifications in respect of management/administration costs, including the number of FTE's, ensuring that any other amounts are identified as necessary to reconcile back to the totals provided in (i) above?
- Provide the information requested in (i) and (ii) above for 2012, and the projections for 2013 – 2016?
Answer
The information requested is on the attached appendix.
The reason for the reclassification is due to the cost of upgrading properties when they become void being classified within "sales and lettings" under "tenant services" in 2010 before being separately accounting for under "estate services" in 2011. This movement is shown in the appendix.
