Annual Governance Statement

The Accounts and Audit Regulations 2003 (amended 2006) introduced the requirement for a statement on internal control to be prepared by local government bodies from the financial year 2003/2004:

“The relevant body shall be responsible for ensuring that the financial management of the body is adequate and effective and that the body has a sound system on internal control which facilitates the effective exercise of that body’s functions and which includes arrangements for the management of risk.”

At least once a year, a review must take place of the effectiveness of the systems of internal control and an Annual Governance Statement (AGS) must be included within the Financial Statement.
