Whole of Government Accounts 2018-19

Inquiry

The Whole of Government Accounts (WGA) is a unique document which provides the most complete and accurate picture available of UK public sector finances.

The WGA is a set of financial statements prepared by HM Treasury in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, that consolidates information on the financial performance of over 9,000 public sector bodies, including central and local government and public corporations such as the Bank of England.

The Comptroller and Auditor General, the head of the National Audit Office, sets out his opinion on the accounts, including any qualifications to the accounts, and the application of national public spending and accounting rules.

If you have evidence relevant to this National Audit report, please submit it here by 6.00pm Thursday 12 November.
