Publication Scheme
We are dedicated to actively sharing information with the public. Trowbridge Town Council has adopted a live publication scheme, with the information provided below linking to various sections of our website or direct document links. If the information is not available on the website, this is stated.
This scheme demonstrates our strong commitment to proactively publishing information, and as a living document, it reflects our dedication to transparency and accountability.
What we spend and how we spend it?
We provide the current year and the previous financial year on our website. In our meetings section on our website, we display the past 5 years therefore, financial information will also be available from the meetings. If you are unsure where to look, please contact us and we can assist.
