 The Precept
 Annual Accounts - Year Ending March 31st 2011
 

The Precept

Parish Councils are funded by what is known as a ‘precept’.   This is a sum of money which is calculated and applied for annually, from Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council, having been incorporated with the local Council Tax.

In addition, Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council gives a grant to all Parishes in the borough.  From time to time as required, other grant aid can be sourced from the borough council and Hampshire County Council and other sources.

Expenditure includes insurance of Parish Council assets, maintenance of village projects, audit fees, the Clerk’s salary and other minor expenses.   A detailed annual return accounting for the use of finances must be produced and submitted to the Audit Commission each year.
