Report of the Director for Finance and Corporate Services

Minutes:

The Chairman advised that Governance Scrutiny Group has an intense programme of substantive items for future meetings and asked officers if there is likely to be further delays with the Council’s Financial Statements. The Service Manager – Finance explained that the evenings agenda had been unusually large with delays to the signing off of the Statement of Accounts, adding that the Statement of Accounts is unlikely to go to the meeting scheduled for September 2023.

 

It was noted that this was the last meeting of Governance Scrutiny Group for 2022/23 and that the Group membership is likely to change after the elections in May and when the membership of scrutiny groups are announced at Annual Council on 25 May 2023.
