Important Notice: External audit - draft statement of accounts 2019-20
The external audit of the draft statement of accounts for the year ended 31 March 2020 has not yet been completed by our external auditors, EY LLP, due to a small number of audit matters which still need to be resolved. This situation is allowed for by Regulation 10, paragraph (2a) of the Accounts and Audit Regulations 2015. (See link HERE): updated by the Accounts and Audit (coronavirus) (amendment) regulations 2020 (See link HERE). Therefore, this notification explains, as per paragraph (2a), that we are not yet able to publish our audited 2019/20 final statement of accounts in line with deadline of 30th November 2020, as per paragraph (1). We are publishing the amended draft statement of accounts, the audit committee has agreed delegated arrangements for any further changes to the accounts, after which we will publish the final audited accounts.
These can be found in the 2019-20 section below.
Asset Management Strategy
The Asset Management Strategy 2020-2035 provides a long term plan for future development and co-location opportunities of the police estates across Derbyshire.
Reserves
Reserves play an important part in any sound financial strategy. They assist the Commissioner and Chief Constable to manage the budget in the short/medium term but also to invest in new initiatives that reinforce Derbyshire’s commitment to responding to the ever-changing profile of policing ‘demand'. A full definition of the different types of reserves held is available.
Our Reserves Strategy is refreshed each year, just before we set our budget. The current strategy was approved in November 2017 by the Commissioner (at the November 2017 Strategic Governance Board) as part of the update to our financial projections. Please note, Appendix B of the strategic governance board report refers specifically to the Budget and Reserves Strategy.
In January/February of each year, the Commissioner sets both the Budget and the Precept (contribution from council tax). As part of the papers that assist him in reaching that decision, we include a forecast of our reserves over the period covered by our Medium Term Financial Plan. In January 2018, we provided a list of all of our reserves and showed our forecasted usage until 2021/22. The Commissioner approved the movements to/from reserves for the forthcoming year (2018/19 in this case) but also noted the forecast for the years beyond that point.
Budget Reports
The budget reports are found further down this page and the specific report showing the reserves and how we estimate they will be utilised is found in Annex D to that report (near the end).
That same report has been restated to present our reserves in the Home Office required report format for all Commissioners to use.
Finally, it should be noted that Derbyshire collaborates with other Forces in the East Midlands on a variety of operational policing and non-operational support services. Where reserves are held by each Collaboration, Derbyshire is entitled to its ‘share’ of those funds despite overall control requiring joint agreement by multiple PCCs and Chief Constables. To reflect that broader ‘entitlement’ (without necessarily having direct control) we have included a third summary including those shared amounts of reserves.
