Dear Ben Lockwood,

Thank you for your quick reply.
I have read the statement of accounts for 2009/10, and the balance
sheet on page 7 of the document:

http://www.ashford.gov.uk/PDF/summary_of...

does not have the following balance sheet items:

* Non-current (or fixed) assets (e.g., roads, buildings, machinery)

* Current assets (e.g. cash, debtors, stock)

* Total Assets

* Current liabilities (e.g., short term loans or short term dated
gilts; creditors)

* Longer term liabilities (e.g., longer term gilts, pension
liabilities, some PFI liabilities)

I would like to request figures for each of the balance sheet items
listed above.

Yours sincerely,

Lisa Evans

Please note that the link I sent you was not the same as the one in your
email -

http://www.ashford.gov.uk/ashford_boroug...
.aspx

This has links to the full statements of accounts which if you look at
the balance sheet on these documents you will find the information that
you have requested.

I believe you are referring to page 7 of the summary accounts - page 27
of the full statement has a full balance sheet.

Please note that this council is not a highways authority so does not
own any roads.
