Guildford is first in Surrey to shine spotlight on
spending
Cllr Andrew Hodges, Lead Councillor for Finance and Resources,
says: "We offer a wide range of services and residents may not be
aware exactly what is involved in providing these, so we've signed
up to present our spending figures in a clear and open way. The
coalition government recently said it would like all councils to
supply this information online, and we are pleased to be the first
council in Surrey, and the second in the country to do so. One of
the core values of the Council is that our work will be publicly
accountable and presented with openness and transparency. This is
an excellent way of demonstrating this.
