Details

Medway Council was one of a number of local authorities to request Exceptional Financial Support for the financial year 2024-25.

The government agreed to the support, conditional on an external assurance review. CIPFA’s external assurance review sets out detailed findings, including conclusions, evidence and methodology used, and includes recommendations for the future.

The review was undertaken in September 2024 and its content is based on the fieldwork completed within this timeframe.
