Financial Services are responsible for financial stewardship functions and preparing the annual accounts. This includes preparing a budget each year for approval by Council as well as publishing audited accounts and audit reports. In addition in October 2016 the Council was required to publish an “Efficiency Plan” to take advantage of the Government’s 4 year settlement guarantee.
