Burton Green Parish Council Accounts
The administration of the Parish Council accounts is governed by statute and the Parish Council’s Financial Regulations which are reviewed annually by the Council. The financial year for the Parish Council runs from April to March and the budget is set annually in December, following which the Council submits its Precept request to Warwick District Council.
The Parish Council receives and approves a Financial Report at each meeting. The Financial Report includes all items of expenditure for approval and details of the spend against budget - the reports can be viewed here. Councillors also receive a bank reconciliation every quarter.
Annual Governance and Accountability Returns
At the end of each financial year the Council’s accounts are audited by an internal auditor appointed by Council and if expenditure or income is over £25,000 that year then the accounts are also audited by an external auditor appointed by the Government (PKF Littlejohn LLP from April 2018).
