  • All Treasurers 30 January 2018 Dear Colleague Return of Parish Finance

It is always a joy to meet so many of you across the year, particularly those we see at our annual Treasurers Training days (which we will be running again in 2018). PCC Annual Report & Accounts As a follow up to my initial email to all Treasurers in December, I want to start my letter this year with a quick summary of what must be included within the PCC’s Annual Report and Accounts, as there are still a small number of parishes that do not submit their accounts to us and others where some of the required elements are missing. We completely understand how this can happen, as many people just keep doing what has always worked well in the past, without sometimes realising that the requirements have changed. However, the majority of accounts do comply with all of the requirements. Every set of PCC Accounts must have the following elements, however small the PCC is: Annual Report (see below) Financial Statements, to include Receipts & Payments (or Income and Expenditure) Statement and the Statement of Assets & Liabilities (or Balance Sheet) Independent Examiner’s Statement (see below) The Exeter Diocesan Board of Finance Limited is a company limited by guarantee No.

Introduction 1.1 South Hams District Council and West Devon Borough Council commissioned naa to undertake a joint Playing Pitch Assessment and Strategy for their two authorities in June 2014. This process was to be linked with, and follow on from, the Playing Pitch Strategy Assessment which naa was currently producing for Plymouth City Council. It has been regarded as essential that both strategies address cross boundary issues and displaced demand between the different authorities. 1.2 South Hams and West Devon Councils are committed to producing a new Playing Pitch Strategy in order to ascertain the current availability of all sports pitches and related facilities across both areas and the requirements for the future. The quality of playing pitches and the level of community access will also be assessed. Once identified, these factors will enable both Councils to identify and plan improvements as well as prioritise any investment. This information will also be used to inform development within each area through the local planning process.
