External Audit and how to contact the council's external auditors

Under the Local Audit and Accountability Act 2014 any local resident or interested party has the legal right to inspect our accounts and related documents and, in certain circumstances, to contact our external auditors.

Our external auditors are Ernst & Young LLP and the appointed Audit Director is:

Neil Harris

Associate Partner, Government & Public Sector, UKI Assurance

Ernst & Young LLP

400 Capability Green

Luton

Bedfordshire LU1 3LU

However prior to contacting the external auditors it would be helpful to first make reference to Council accounts: a guide to your rights (PDF), published by the National Audit Office April 2015.
