Annual Governance Statements

Required by the Transparency Code for Smaller Authorities, the annual governance statement is signed by the Responsible Financial Officer and the Chair to assert that a sound system of internal control exists and is followed.

It forms part of the annual return which is currently scrutinised by the internal auditor who contrary to the name is not an employee of the Council.
