Finance

The local government financial year runs from 1st April to 31st March, so the last complete financial year is now 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2025. The accounts for this period have been prepared, examined and signed off, and the end of year returns are available below.

In addition, please see the note about Scrutiny and Public Access.

Year-to-date accounts and a brief finance report are provided in advance of every Council meeting and may be found with the latest meeting agenda. The Responsible Financial Officer will be happy to help should you have any further questions.
