Agenda item

The Chief Finance Officer introduced the report which sought approval for the audited Statement of Accounts for 2017-18.  An amendment to the report was noted on page 99 where the 2016-17 end figure should read £3,067,908 not £3,067,907 as printed.  It was noted that the un-audited accounts had been shown on the Authority’s website since May but would be replaced with the audited accounts when they had been signed off by the Auditors.

In response to Members’ queries it was noted that:

a business case for the Hulme End cycle hire proposal was not necessary as it was just a change of venue due to the closure of Waterhouses cycle hire. 

A charge for impairment was shown in the Capital Adjustment Account due to a District Valuer valuation of Castleton Visitor Centre.

The Chief Finance Officer agreed to send fuller details to Members in response to their queries regarding final adjustment of the accounts since the Outturn and income and expenditure for Visitor Centres and Communications and Design services.

The recommendation to approve the audited Statement of Accounts and to note the amendments to the draft accounts was moved, seconded, voted on and carried.

RESOLVED:

To approve the audited Statement of Accounts for 2017-18 as shown in Appendix 1 of the report and to note the amendments made to the draft accounts itemised in Appendix 2 of the report.
