Finance
The council's money is public money. It raises and spends money for the benefit of the local community.
In December 2014 the Department for Communities and Local Government issued the Transparency Code for Smaller Authorities. The Code is a requirement for smaller authorities to make information available for local people to increase democratic accountability.
These pages allows you to access all of the information that we are required to publish under the Transparency Code.
The information for each financial year will be available after the end of the financial year on 31 March and by 1 July at the latest. The exceptions to this are the list of councillor responsibilities and the minutes, agendas and papers of formal meetings which are published on an ongoing basis.
All documents required to be published under the Transparency Code can be found below.
