Financial Management and Governance in Local Councils 2014-15

This report summarises the outcomes of the Auditor General’s appointed auditors’ work on the 2014-15 accounts of town and community councils and their joint committees across Wales.

It identifies that auditors are reporting on similar themes for 2014-15 as were reported on in previous years, indicating that the sector still needs to improve in several key areas if councils are to meet the proposed competency requirements.
