Payments and spending made by the council

We are obliged to publish details of all spending over £500. However, for the purposes of transparency, we publish reports which detail all council spending. We also publish details of spending on procurement cards and purchase orders made.

Information has only been excluded from publication where:

  • the information is exempt from publication under the Data Protection Act
  • the information relates to the protection of vulnerable adults or children
  • the information is confidential or would attract an exemption under the Freedom of Information Act eg where disclosure could be prejudicial to the commercial interests of any person including the authority or where it is covered by legal privilege

This data is freely re-usable under the same terms as data.gov.uk

The spending data has been prepared in accordance with the LGA Local Transparency - A Practitioner's Guide to Publishing Local Spending Data

Any requests for further details about these items will be dealt with under Freedom of Information provisions .

Cumberland Council

On 1 April 2023 local government in Cumbria changed, with Cumberland Council providing all your council services.  

Don't worry though, your bins will be emptied as normal, and you'll still be able to speak to the same team about any enquiries to do with things like council tax, benefits, planning or any other service.

Find out more about the changes.

Keep up to date by finding and following the new council on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
