Statement of Accounts
The purpose of the Statement of Accounts is to give electors, local taxpayers, members of the Council and other interested parties clear information about the Council's finances.
The statement summarises:
- the cost of services provided by us in the year
- how services were paid for
- our assets and liabilities at the year end
The format of the accounts is prescribed by the Code of Practice on Local Authority Accounting in the United Kingdom.
