Finance and Policy

Parish Councillors work with a sum of money known as the Precept; allocated from local taxation which they are able to spend to further the aims of the community of Lydford parish. The Council’s financial accounts are subject to scrutiny by independent internal audit. Results of audit are required to be published here. Documents detailing receipts and expenditure can be examined by appointment during a period after audit. Physical copies of all of the Council’s documents can be obtained by written request to the Clerk. There is a charge for this service (See Publication Scheme 2020, Schedule of Fees)
