---------------------------

This introductory session is for inexperienced clerks in their first few months and is designed to give them an overview of a council's year, along with a basic understanding of the RFO's role.

If you have 9 month's experience or more, this session is unlikely to cover anything you don't already know. Please leave this session for very new clerks and book yourself onto the more detailed sessions on budgeting, Internal Control, Year-end and VAT instead.


Topics include:
 
Roles and responsibilities

Setting a budget and precept

Internal control

The Annual Governance & Accountability return

Internal and external audit

By the end of the session you will be aware of relevant legislation and sources of guidance, be able to describe the key financial activities in a year, be aware of how the council's accounts must be prepared and audited and recognise the importance of internal controls.
