Transparency Code

The transparency code for smaller authorities, 2015

 

This requires smaller councils with an annual turnover not exceeding £25,000, to publish certain financial and administrative information online and make it available to the public.

 

The aim of this is to provide taxpayers with a clear picture of the authority’s activities, spending and governance. All items of expenditure above £100.00

 

1.  End of year accounts

2.  Annual governance statement

3.  Internal audit report

4.  List of a councillor or member responsibilities

5.  The details of public land and building assets

6.  Minutes, agendas and meeting papers of formal meeting
