Summary of Accounts 2010/11
We want your views!
Each year the Council is legally required to produce a Statement of Accounts that summarises the Council’s financial activities and gives details of the overall financial position. Much of the information in the document is of a technical nature satisfying both statutory requirements and local authority procedures so councils are now being encouraged to produce summary accounts.
Summary accounts are intended to be a user friendly summary of the more detailed Statement of Accounts publication and we are interested in your views as to how these summary accounts look and what further information you would like to see in them. Please either email them to finance@swale.gov.uk or send them to:
Accountancy Section,
Swale Borough Council,
Swale House,
East Street,
Sittingbourne,
Kent, ME10 3HT.
We have already changed their appearance in response to comments we received earlier.
Statement by the Head of Finance
The Council's Statement of Accounts has been prepared to meet accounting standards. The figures in this summary were originally compiled having regard to proper accounting practice. For this summary we have changed the way some information is presented so that it is easier to understand. A full copy of the Statement of Accounts is published on the Council's website.

Interim Head of Finance
