Parish Council Finance Reports

HRPC Financial Reports

The majority of our Parish Council’s income comes from local taxes in the form of a ‘precept’.  The rules for how our Parish Council manages its finances are set down in our Financial Regulations.

Our Financial Regulations are reviewed regularly and agreed upon by the whole council.  The Finance Committee is responsible for controlling income and expenditure throughout the year to ensure that the Parish Council operates within the agreed budget.

Accessibility Regulations

We are aware that the Accounts and Audit Regulations requirement for a physical ‘wet ink’ signature on the original AGAR, does not allow parish council’s to fully comply with the Accessibility Regulations. The National Audit Office are aware that the two pieces of legislation are not compatible, therefore smaller authorities are advised to make it clear on their website that the document is a scan and will not be fully compliant with the Accessibility Regulations.
