Statement of Accounts

At the end of each financial year (March) we are required by law to produce a Statement of Accounts. This is essentially a technical publication which provides a true and fair view of our financial position, and our income and expenditure for the year.

It includes all the financial statements and disclosure notes required by law and these are reviewed by our external auditors. The key statements included are:

Movement in Reserves
Comprehensive Income and Expenditure Account
Balance Sheet
Cash Flow Statement
Key notes to the Core Financial Statements
Housing Revenue Account Income and Expenditure Account
Collection Fund
