Inspection of Accounts

National legislation — the Local Audit and Accountability Act (2014) and the Accounts and Audit Regulations (2015) — gives registered voters the right to inspect their local authority’s accounts, ask questions about them and object to them, during a period of 30 working days every year.

Amounts spent on buy backs and demolitions on different regeneration sites

Lambeth is redeveloping six estates as part of its estate regeneration programme, which will contribute towards the pledge to develop 1,000 new homes at council level rent. The “buy-back” of owned properties on the estates will help existing homeowners wishing to move away or sell their home, and help clear the way for redevelopment.

Council officials dealt with 4 requests for details relating to the “buy-back” scheme and proposed demolitions during the Inspection of Accounts process. These can be accessed from the links below:
