The Capital Strategy focuses on the core principles that underpin the Council’s capital programme and gives a position statement with regards to capital expenditure and the resources available. It also reviews the key issues and risks that will impact on the delivery of the Council’s capital investment plans and the governance framework required to support delivery of the Strategy.

The three-year Capital Programme 2023/26 and update of available resources is detailed in Appendix 2. This includes specific reference to a number of budget areas which historically have had subsequent reports to Executive to approve the programme of schemes for these areas e.g.: - Public Building Repairs and Highway Programmes.
