Annual Audit of Governance & Accountability 2021/22
Each year the smaller authority’s Annual Governance and Accountability Return (AGAR) needs to be reviewed by an external auditor appointed by Smaller Authorities’ Audit Appointments Ltd. The unaudited AGAR has been published with this notice. As it has yet to be reviewed by the appointed auditor, it is subject to change as a result of that review.
Any person interested has the right to inspect and make copies of the accounting records for the financial year to which the audit relates and all books, deeds, contracts, bills, vouchers, receipts and other documents relating to those records must be made available for inspection by any person interested. For the year ended 31 March 2022, these documents will be available on reasonable notice by application to the Parish Clerk. Read the full notice here. [2/6/22]
The full set of audit documents have now been uploaded to this website. You can view them here [13/6/22]

For your information . . .
A Neighbourhood Development Plan (NDP) is a community-led framework for guiding the future development, regeneration and conservation of an area. It is about the use and development of land and contains our vision, objectives, planning policies, proposals for improving the area and/or providing new facilities and protecting the landscape. In 2015 Menheniot Parish Council began the process of creating a Neighbourhood Plan with a number of public consultations and surveys that were completed between 2015 and 2021. This plan relates to planning decisions made within Menheniot Parish.
