Subject: Request for AGAR and Public Rights Notice for Financial Year 2023–24

Dear Mr Hughes,

Thank you for confirming the current 2024–25 AGAR inspection period.

However, I would like to inspect the accounting records for the 2023–24 financial year under my rights granted by the Local Audit and Accountability Act 2014 and Accounts and Audit Regulations 2015.

Please confirm the following:
# Whether the 2023–24 AGAR was approved at a full council meeting and submitted to the external auditor;
# Whether the statutory notice of public rights for 2023–24 was published;
# When and where I may inspect the 2023–24 records, including all associated invoices, receipts, bank statements, and supporting material.

If this was not completed correctly, I may need to raise the matter with the external auditor and other bodies.

Sincerely,
Ed Surridge
