Documents will be made available electronically for inspection. Should a person not be able to access documents electronically, provision will be made for inspection at the Town Hall, Bexhill-on-Sea by prior arrangement. They may also receive copies of the accounts and documents, although multiple copies will be charged for and an appointment may be required.

The budget book shows the Council’s revenue and capital budgets, analysed over each of the Council’s main aims. To enable comparisons to be made, information is provided for previous years. The budget book also provides information on the calculation of the Council Tax and a summary of the charges for each parish or town in the District. Finally there is a statement of the Council’s reserves and a glossary of terms.
