Financial Reports

Councils spend public money. The money comes from national and local taxes – as well as charges to service users.

Councils must tell local residents and taxpayers how their money is spent. They do this by publishing yearly accounts and details of their spending. Council accounts are the financial statements that most organisations must produce at the end of the year. These include a balance sheet and summary of income and expenditure along with supporting notes that give more details. The term also includes related documents used to make up the council’s accounts and any report by the external auditor.

The annual accounts for the last financial year are shown below together with the Notice of Public Rights and Publication of Annual Governance and Accountability Return that the Council is legally obliged to publish .
