Financial Information and the Transparency Code
In 2015 The Department of Communities and Local Government published a Transparency Code for local councils. There are statutory obligations for Council's with an annual turnover of less of less than £25,000 and for those greater than £200,000.
Under the Code, Queniborough Parish Council will, on request, make available financial information required of larger councils
