This document contains an estimated financial outturn position for the 2022/23 financial year for the Cairngorms National Park Authority. The finance team is closing the accounts, with an external audit expected in late September/October 2023. The draft figures show an underspend of £250,000 against a total income of £10,636,000, which is just under 2.4%. A large portion of this underspend is related to capital expenditure on peatland restoration, due to challenges in contracting work. The Resources Committee will receive updates, as will the Audit and Risk Committee, which oversees the external audit of the final accounts.
