I assume the question refers to the local authorities' revenue accounts. The figures in the following table are taken from the Income & Expenditure Statement of the relevant 2010 Annual Financial Statements (AFS). Closing balances, together with annual surpluses/(deficits), are shown inclusive of Transfers from/(to) Reserves. The figures are un-audited. It should be noted that the audit of the 2010 AFS data is not due for completion until 31 March 2012 and that un-audited data are always subject to post audit revision.
