Any debt due to the Council may only be written-off with the authorisation of the Executive except, insofar as an individual debt does not exceed £10,000, the initial authority may be given by the Chief Finance Officer who shall be required to publish periodically reports of the debts that have been written off in accordance with the delegated authority.

The Financial Services Manager is exercising an authority delegated to him by the CFO for debts up to £5,000. The Financial Director (Chief Finance Officer) is exercising this delegated authority for debts under £10,000.
