How it works

How Council finance is managed

1

Budget set

The Council agrees a budget for the financial year, taking account of expected costs, planned work, reserves and local priorities.

2

Precept requested

The Council requests a local precept from Pembrokeshire County Council. This forms part of local Council Tax bills.

3

Spending monitored

Payments, bank balances, budget position and financial risks are monitored and reported to councillors during the year.

4

Audit completed

The Council’s accounts and governance arrangements are reviewed through internal and external audit processes.

Officer responsibility

Responsible Financial Officer

The Town Clerk is also the Responsible Financial Officer. The RFO maintains the Council’s accounting records, prepares finance reports, supports budget monitoring and advises councillors on financial governance.

Contact the Clerk

Public records

Public access to information

Finance and audit documents are published to support transparency and public accountability. Some records are published annually, while others are included with Council meeting papers.
