Statement of accounts
Statement of accounts by year
The external audit of the draft statement of accounts for the year ended 31 March 2019 has not yet been completed by our external auditors, EY LLP, due to a small number of audit procedures still due to be concluded upon. This situation is allowed for by Regulation 10, paragraph (2a) of the Accounts and Audit Regulations 2015.
Therefore, this notification explains, as per paragraph (2a), that we are not yet able to publish our audited 2018/19 final statement of accounts in line with deadline of 31 July 2019, as per paragraph (1). The accounts published below are those being audited and once the audit opinion is received we will publish the final audited accounts.
The statement of accounts presents the overall financial position of the authority for the year ended 31 March. The accounts are produced in the format stipulated by the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA) in accordance with best accounting practice.

Improving our services
Although the accounts have to be produced in accordance with a range of regulations and reporting standards it is important that they are understandable to the general reader.
We are always looking to improve the content and format of the statement of accounts. We would welcome your comments on how the accounts and explanatory information could be improved in future.
