NALC New Model Financial Regulations 2019
NALC has now issued an updated version of its Model Financial Regulations.
NALC advise that the main changes from the previous (2016) version are:
1. Restriction added to Regulation 11.1.a.ii
Clarifying disapplication of contract regulations to legal professionals limited to those acting in disputes only – not general legal work.
2. Update to limits under Public Contract Regulations – footnote to Regulation 11.1.b
3. Minor change to heading Regulation 12.
Financial regulations govern the conduct of financial management by the council and may only be amended or varied by resolution of the council.
They are one of the council's main governing policy documents providing procedural guidance for members and officers. Financial regulations must be observed in conjunction with the council's Standing Orders and any individual financial regulations relating to contracts
