Annual accounts
The Council publishes annual accounts to tell local residents and taxpayers how their money is spent.
The accounts show:
- The cost of services provided by the Council
- How services were paid for
- The Council’s assets and liabilities at the end of each financial year, which runs to 31 March
Each year’s accounts must be published by 31 July.
There is a backlog in the publication of audited accounts and audit letters of local authorities. This is caused by increased audit requirements and subsequent capacity in audit companies. Therefore, we currently have a draft statement of accounts for the past three years.
Accounts for the last 7 years can be viewed as PDF files:
