Annual accounts
The Council's Statement of Accounts provides information on the Council's income and spending during the financial year and its balances at the end of the financial year.
Statement of Accounts
The documents that make up the Statements are complex and we have to prepare them in line with the accounting rules that apply to all councils.
The principles we use to prepare each Statement of Accounts are set out in the Statement of Accounting Policies within the document.
A glossary at the end of the document explains key financial terms.
The Statements are audited by the Council's external auditors Ernst and Young LLP. Its opinion certificate is included in the document.
Audit Reports provide information about the statutory audit of the accounts by the Council's external auditors.
How to examine the accounts or question the Council's external auditors
The Council's draft accounts are available for inspection each year, normally in June. The Council's external auditors are also available to answer questions about the accounts during this period.
We announce further details and specific dates through this website.
