Notice regarding the publication of the Statement of Accounts 2022/23

The Accounts and Audit Regulations 2015 as amended by the Accounts and Audit (Coronavirus) (Amendment) Regulations 2020 require the publication of the council’s draft Statement of Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 by 31 May 2023 allowing the commencement period for the exercise of public rights to inspect the draft statements to include the first 10 working days of June, with inspection dates being between 1 June and 12 July 2023.

However, the council is not yet able to publish these accounts as the audits of the draft Statement of Accounts for all the legacy authorities and Northamptonshire County Council have not yet been concluded for the year ended 31 March 2021 which has subsequently impacted on publishing the authorities draft statements for year ended 31 March 2022. This must take place before the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 are published.

Further information, including the dates for public inspection of the Statement of Accounts 2022/23 will be posted when available.
