Transparency Code

The Local Audit and Accountability Act 2014 sets out a new audit framework for local public authorities which are currently covered by the Audit Commission regime.

Under the new audit framework, smaller authorities, including parish councils, internal drainage boards, charter trustees and port health authorities, with an annual turnover not exceeding £25,000 will be exempt from routine external audit. 

In place of the routine audit, these smaller authorities will be subject to the new transparency requirements laid out in the Transparency Code. 

This will enable local electors and ratepayers to access relevant information about the authorities’ accounts and governance.

Please see the documents for 2015/16 below:
