Northamptonshire County Council overspend 'may break law'

Northamptonshire County Council overspend 'may break law' A cash-strapped council may have broken the law by overspending by nearly £60m and failing to balance its books, an auditor has said.

In April government commissioners were sent in to run "failing" Northamptonshire County Council due to its financial problems.

It announced it had ended 2017-18 with a £12.7m overspend, which it met from reserves to balance the budget.

But auditors KPMG said it may have overspent by £58.9m. BBC  Northampton
