We have achieved very satisfying progress over the last year. The 2012 Annual Report highlights examples of innovation, partnership working and value for Surrey people that have been key to this success. It also sets out the finance and governance statements for 2011-12.

The report demonstrates the Council’s commitment to delivering high quality services for residents whilst making the necessary efficiencies to improve value for money.

We look forward to any comments that you may have about this report and any other issues you would like to raise.

The Year End Financial Outturn 2011-12 was reported to Cabinet on 29 May 2012.
