The Statement of Accounts is a summary of the financial performance for the year and the financial position of the Council.

The Council's accounts are prepared in accordance with the Accounts and Audit Regulations and the Code of Practice on Local Authority Accounting in the United Kingdom and the associated guidance issued by the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy.

2022/23 Statement of Accounts:

The Accounts and Audit Regulations 2015, as amended by the Accounts and Audit (Amendment) Regulations 2022 require audited 2022/23 accounts to be completed by the 30 September 2023.

Unfortunately, full audited accounts are not yet available. This is due to the on-going challenges impacting on the local audit market, including the need to meet regulatory and other professional requirements, which has meant our auditors have been unable to complete their work as quickly as would normally be expected. The Council’s draft (pre-audit) Statement of Accounts are available below.

The statutory inspection period for the draft accounts has now ended.
