Reports for the Financial Year Ending 31st March 2020

All local councils have to complete and publish details annually concerning the financial year that ends on 31 March.  This information covers both the accounts and the systems each council uses to budget its expenditure, look after its assets (physical & financial), assess risks (and take action to minimise them), comply with legal obligations and minimise fraud.

Once an internal audit has been carried out papers are submitted to the external auditor.  For Aylesbeare this is a company called PKF Littlejohn.

Because Aylesbeare’s expenditure and income are both below £25,000 pa the Council is exempt from any audit by PKF Littlejohn, unless it is one of the few small councils chosen each year at random for an audit.

The papers submitted are called the Annual Governance and Accountability Return and you can view the submission for 2019/20 here.

To complete the return the following 4 pages, which give greater detail, were used.  You can view by clicking on them

Aylesbeare’s Income for 2019/20

Aylesbeare’s Expenditure for 2019/20

The Bank Reconciliation & Variance Analysis for 2019/20

The Asset Register and Councillor Roles

Any person interested has the right to inspect & make copies of all the documents that support the information above, but they have to exercise this right between Monday 7 September 2020 and Friday 16 October 2020 (inclusive).

Any local government elector (or their representative) has the right to question the auditor, PKF Littlejohn, about the accounting records and make objections to the auditor on matters of public interest or unlawful accounting within the same timeframe.

Full details of these rights and opportunities are contained in this Notice of Public Rights.
