Income is slightly behind budget in the month and is 1.3m adrift ytd. This is in the areas of Elective, Critical Care and high cost drugs and devices. Pay is overspent in the month by 0.3m and 1.4m ytd. This continues to be driven by overspends on medical and Nursing pay groups. Non Pay is overspent by 0.8m in month and 2.3m ytd.

Due to the Trust being behind plan to date, the STF has not been achieved, but as the forecast is to delivery the control total for the year, this will be achieved in full at the end of the year.
