Finance / Transparency

The Smaller Authorities (Transparency Requirements) (England) Regulations 2015 requires the on-line publication of Parish Council information which the Government says will provide taxpayers with a clear picture of the Council's' activities, spending and governance and will improve the ability of communities to hold local public bodies to account.

Alderton Parish Council's turnover currently exceeds £25,000, however in the interests of openness and transparency we will publish the required information as set out in Part 2 of the Code:

· all items of expenditure above £100 (see paragraphs 13 – 15); click here to download
· end of year accounts (see paragraphs 16 and 17), see 2019/20 Accounts at top of page
· annual governance statement (see paragraphs 18and 19), see Annual Governance Statement (Section 1) at top of page
· internal audit report (see paragraphs 20 – 22), see Annual Governance Statement (page 3) at top of page
