Report of the Accountant General

Statement of Accounts Chief Auditor’s Report on the Audit of the 2019 Financial

Statements to the Government of Anguilla

Qualified Opinion on Financial Statements

I have audited the financial statements of the Government of Anguilla for the year ended 31

December 2019 under the Financial Administration and Audit Act 2010 (the Act). These comprise of

the Statement of Financial Performance, the Statement of Receipts and Payments, the Statement of

Assets and Liabilities, the Consolidated Statement of Cashflows for the year then ended and the

related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In my opinion, except for the possible effects of the matters described in the Basis for Qualified

Opinion section of my report, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the

financial position of the Government of Anguilla as at 31 December 2019 and the amounts recorded

for total receipts and payments, financial performance, cash flows and assets and liabilities for the

year, in accordance with the Act, directions made thereunder by the Minister of Finance and Part 1 of

the International Public Sector Accounting Standard Financial Reporting Under the Cash Basis of

Accounting.

Basis for Qualified Opinion on Financial Statements

As was the case in previous years, the Government of Anguilla had not maintained adequate

accounting records to support the:

• validity of advances and deposits; and

• completeness, accuracy and validity of arrears of revenue

In addition:

• the accounts do not include a statement outlining the details of remissions, write-offs and

settlements as required by Section 21 of the Act.

I conducted my audit in accordance with Section 55 of the Act and International Standards on

Auditing (ISAs). My responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s

Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of my report. I am independent of

the Government of Anguilla in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for

Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) together with the ethical

requirements that are relevant to my audit of the financial statements in Anguilla, and I have fulfilled

my other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. I believe

that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my qualified

opinion.

Qualified Opinion on Regularity

In my opinion, except for:

• the authorisation of reallocation and virement warrants;

• the financial effects of any adjustments that might have been necessary, had I been provided with

the evidence relating to the completeness of property tax, interim stabilisation levy and

accommodation tax, along with the unknown impact of using incorrect tax rates for imports of

petroleum and diesel; • the authorisation of advances from the Consolidated Fund;

• omitting relevant deposits over five years old from the Consolidated Fund; and

• the approval of remissions;

in all material respects, the receipts and payments recorded in the financial statements have been

applied to the purposes intended by the House of Assembly and conform to the authorities which

govern them.

Basis for Qualified Opinion on Regularity

Reallocation and Virement Warrants

Section 30 of the Act states that the Minister of Finance, under his or her hand, may direct surpluses

by means of a virement warrant. Section 31 of the Act states that the Minister of Finance may issue

reallocation warrants under his or her hand.

All reallocation and virement warrants issued in 2019 were authorised by the Permanent Secretary –

Finance or the Deputy Permanent Secretary, Finance and not the Minister of Finance. I therefore

qualify my audit opinion as both virement and reallocation warrants were not authorised in the manner

required by the Act.

Tax Revenue

The Government of Anguilla had not developed and operated adequate processes to demonstrate

that all payments due to the Government for:

• Property Tax;

• Interim Stabilisation Levy; and

• Accommodation Tax;

during 2019 had been identified for collection in accordance with relevant legislation. I therefore

qualify my audit opinion in this respect.

Taxes on International Trade

The Government of Anguilla used incorrect tax rates for imports of petroleum and diesel. I therefore

qualify my regularity opinion as I am unable to confirm whether duties have been collected in

accordance with relevant legislation.

Advances

Section 46 of the Act states that the Minister of Finance, may by advance warrant under his or her

hand, authorise the Accountant General to make advances from the Consolidated Fund or from a

deposit received by the Government. Advances made in 2019 were not authorised by the Minister of

Finance. I therefore qualify my audit opinion as advances were not authorised in the manner required

by the Act.

Deposits

Section 47(5) of the Act states that, a deposit that is unclaimed for five years shall, subject to the

provisions of any law, cease to be a deposit and accrue to the Consolidated Fund but the Minister of Finance may direct the refund of a deposit to a person who subsequently satisfies the Minister of

Finance that that person is entitled to it. As documentation is not available to support all deposits, I

qualify my audit opinion as I have been unable to confirm whether deposits have been treated in

accordance with the Act.

Approval of Remissions

Section 18(4) of the Act states that: ‘a remission of a tax, fee or other amount…shall not exceed

$1,000 or such greater amount in any financial year as may be prescribed by regulation by the

Governor in Council with the approval of the House of Assembly.’

While remissions were approved by the Governor in Council, I was not provided with evidence of

approval by the House of Assembly for all remissions. I therefore qualify my audit opinion as

remissions were not authorised in the manner required by the Act.

Other Information

Management is responsible for the other information in the Report and Accounts of the Consolidated

Fund. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the

financial statements and my auditor’s report thereon. The other information comprises the Accountant

General’s Report. My opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and,

except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in my report, I do not express any form of assurance

conclusion thereon.

In connection with my audit of the financial statements, my responsibility is to read the other

information to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements and to identify

any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or materially inconsistent with, the

knowledge acquired by me in the course of performing the audit. If I become aware of any apparent

material misstatements or inconsistencies, I consider the implications for my report.

Matters on Which I Report by Exception

With the exception of the issues raised in the basis of qualified opinion on regularity and basis for

qualified opinion on the financial statements, I have nothing to report in respect of the following

matters which I report to you if, in my opinion:

• adequate accounting records have not been kept; or

• the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or

• I have not received all the information and explanations I require for my audit.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the

Financial Statements

As explained in the Statement of Responsibilities, Management is responsible for the preparation of

the financial statements that present fairly in accordance with Section 52 of the Act and the

appropriate Ministerial Direction. The Direction requires, inter alia, the accounts to comply with Part 1

of the International Public Sector Accounting Standard Financial Reporting under the Cash Basis of

Accounting. Management is also responsible for such internal control as management determines is

necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement,

whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Government of

Anguilla’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to cease

operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Government of Anguilla’s financial

reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements, as a whole,

are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report

that includes my opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee

that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it

exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the

aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on

the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, I exercise

professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. I also:

• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to

fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit

evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my opinion. The risk of not

detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error,

as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override

of internal control.

• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit

procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an

opinion on the effectiveness of the Government of Anguilla’s internal control.

• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting

estimates and related disclosures made by management.

• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting

and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events

or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Government of Anguilla’s ability to continue as

a going concern. If I conclude that a material uncertainty exists, I am required to draw attention in

my auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are

inadequate, to modify my opinion. My conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to

the date of my auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Government

of Anguilla to cease to continue as a going concern.

• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the

disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and

events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

I communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned

scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in

internal control that I identify during my audit.

I also provide those charged with governance with a statement that I have complied with relevant

ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and

other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on my independence, and where applicable,

related safeguards. Responsibilities for Regularity

The Accountant General is responsible for ensuring the regularity of financial transactions.

I am responsible for expressing an opinion on whether the receipts and payments have been applied

to the purposes intended by the House of Assembly and conform to the authorities which govern

them.

As the Chief Auditor, I intend to issue a qualified audit report on your 2019 and 2020 financial statements.

There are also further issues to report to you on both years prior to the approval of the accounts, many of

these are consistent with previous years and will be reported until we have recovered the audit position.

1 As the Chief Auditor, I am responsible, in accordance with the Financial Administration and Audit Act

(the Act) for providing an opinion on whether:

• the financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Government of Anguilla’s

Consolidated Fund as at 31 December 2019 and as at 31 December 2020; and

• the receipts and payments have been applied to the purposes intended by the House of

Assembly and conform to the authorities which govern them.

2 I do not try to obtain absolute assurance that the financial statements are correctly stated but adopt

the concept of materiality. In planning and conducting the audit, I seek to identify material

misstatements in your financial statements, namely, those that might result in a reader of the

accounts being misled.

3 The quantitative levels at which I judge such misstatements to be material for the Consolidated Fund

for both years to be EC$2.5 million. Whether an item is judged to be material can also be affected by

certain qualitative issues such as legal and regulatory requirements and political sensitivity.

4 International Standard on Auditing (ISA) 260 requires me to report certain matters arising from the

audit of the financial statements to those charged with governance of a body in sufficient time to

enable appropriate action.

5 This report sets out for consideration the matters arising from the audit of the financial statements of

the Consolidated Fund, for 2019 and 2020, that require reporting under ISA 260 to the Permanent

Secretary – Finance.

6 I have now completed the audit work on both the 2019 and 2020 financial statements, and I

summarise the findings from my audit in this report. I have already discussed these issues with the

Accountant General.

7 The certification of the 2019 and 2020 financial statements is coming shortly after signing off the 2018

financial statements but is still some five years after the 2019 and 2020 year-ends. There are a

number of reasons for this, including the impact of the COVID19 pandemic and the fact that my team

were unable to travel to the island to complete audit work for two years. However, over the last twelve

months there has been considerable progress made by both the Government (the Treasury and

Finance Departments and the Internal Audit Service) and by my team to move the audit process

forward.

8 This report finalises stage one of my agreed recovery plan with the Government where I agreed a

plan to certify the 2018, 2019 and 2020 accounts in 2025. This was to close the remaining audits

under the ‘old contract’ and then stage two was to agree a contract extension to complete the audit of

the 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 financial statements by the Summer of 2027. This contract extension

has recently been finalised, and we are now planning to deliver stage two of the recovery plan with

key stakeholders during the next two years.

Page 4 of 10 - Audit of Financial Statements Report – Government of Anguilla 9 The Government and I are extremely keen to meet this recovery plan, and I will work with the

Government to facilitate the improvements needed to the accounts and audit process to enable us to

be in a position to certify accounts and report issues on a timelier basis.

Proposed Audit Opinion

10 I intend to issue qualified audit opinions on both years (2019 & 2020) accounts once you have

provided me with a Letter of Representation covering 2019 and 2020.

11 I issue a ‘qualified’ audit opinion where I have material concerns about some aspects of your

accounts; otherwise, I issue an unqualified opinion. The majority of these qualifications have rolled

forward from previous years, cover both years accounts and will be reported until we recover and

review the audit position under the contract extension.

12 The Letter of Representation contains certain confirmations I am required to obtain from you under

auditing standards along with confirmation of other specific information you have provided to me

during the audit.

13 My audit report is qualified in respect of matters outlined in Exhibit 1. All of these qualifications are

the same as in my report on previous years’ financial statements, so whilst, given the timing of the

audits and the accounts position, it is disappointing to have qualified accounts, it is pleasing that there

are no new qualifications for 2019 and 2020. Going forward I will review and consider the impact of

these qualifications.

Exhibit 1: reasons for my qualified audit opinion for 2019 and 2020

Opinion qualified Reason for qualification

Regularity opinion – recurring qualification issues for 2019 and 2020

Taxes and Levies Taxes on International Trade

Tax rates for petroleum and diesel are different and were incorrectly

included in the Customs duties/taxes collection system. This means that

there could be under, or overpayment of taxes, and I am unable to quantify

the impact.

As a result, I was not able to obtain assurance that these taxes and levies

had been calculated in accordance with legislation.

Taxes and Levies • Property tax

• Accommodation tax

• Interim stabilisation levy

No reconciliations are undertaken between records held by other

departments, such as the Land and Survey Department’s register of

properties and records of businesses maintained by the Ministry of Finance.

Page 5 of 10 - Audit of Financial Statements Report – Government of Anguilla Opinion qualified Reason for qualification

As a result, I was not able to obtain assurance that these taxes and levies

had been calculated in accordance with legislation.

Authorisation of Reallocation and virement warrants have been authorised by the Permanent

reallocation and virement Secretary, rather than, as required by the Act, by the Minister of Finance.

warrants

One of the difficulties is that very large numbers of reallocation and virement

warrants are issued, often of small value. Consideration could therefore be

given to grouping together reallocations and virement, into a smaller number

of summary adjustments, which makes it more feasible for them to be

signed by the Minister.

Deposits Deposits over five years are not identified and added to the Consolidated

Fund as required by Section 47 of the Act.

I do note that some deposits relate to ongoing projects where it would not be

appropriate to add to the Consolidated Fund.

Advances Advances were not authorised by the Minister of Finance as required by

Section 46 of the Act.

Remissions While remissions were approved by Executive Council, I was not provided

with evidence of approval for by the House of Assembly for all remissions

over $1,000 as required by Section 18(4) of the Act.

Presents fairly opinion – recurring qualification issues for 2019 and 2020

Advances I was unable to obtain audit evidence to support the completeness,

accuracy, validity and recoverability of advances disclosed in the notes to

the accounts because:

• the Government does not keep records and reconciliations to support all

individual advances; and

• some advances appear to be inter-ministry/departmental transactions

which may not meet the definition of an advance

Deposits I was unable to obtain audit evidence to support the completeness,

accuracy, and validity of deposits disclosed in the notes to the accounts

because:

• the Government does not keep records and reconciliations to support

individual deposits; and

• some deposits appear to be inter-ministry/ department transactions

which may not meet the definition of a deposit.

Arrears of revenue I was unable to obtain audit evidence to support the completeness,

accuracy, and validity of arrears of revenue shown in the notes to the

accounts because:

• there are a lack of system prints to support all arrears declared by

departments - this is because systems are live, and in many cases,

reports cannot be retrospectively reproduced

• for transactions where system prints are available, individual balances at

31 December 2019 and 31 December 2020 cannot be fully supported as

there are constant changes in arrears and payments being received

Page 6 of 10 - Audit of Financial Statements Report – Government of Anguilla Opinion qualified Reason for qualification

• there are no reviews of collectability undertaken to establish whether the

arrears will ever be received by the Government; and

• there is a lack of pro-active chasing of arrears

Remissions, write-offs and The accounts do not disclose the information in respect of remissions, write-

settlements offs and settlements as required by Section 21 of the Act.

Significant Issues Arising from the Audit

Uncorrected misstatements

14 There is one uncorrected misstatement in the financial statements for both 2019 and 2020. At 31

December 2019 and 2020, the Government held a deposit of XCD$1.235m with British American

Insurance (BAI) which is shown in note 13 of the 2019 and 2020 statements. BAI has been in

liquidation since 2007. It is currently estimated that depositors will recover up to 25% of the value of

their deposits and XCD$165,000 was received in 2018. Fiscal Reserve Deposits are therefore

overstated by up to XCD1.050million in both 2019 and 2020. The Government have decided to refer

to this in a post balance sheet event note rather than adjusting the carrying value of the deposit.

15 If you decide not to correct this misstatement, I ask that you confirm in the letter of representation that

you concur with management’s reasons for not adjusting the financial statements.

Corrected misstatements

16 There are misstatements that have been corrected by management for both 2019 and 2020, which I

consider should be drawn to your attention due to their relevance to your responsibilities over the

financial reporting process. They are set out with explanations in Appendix 1.

Other significant issues arising from the audit of the 2019 and

2020 financial statements

17 In the course of the audit, we consider a number of matters relating to the accounts and report any

significant issues arising to you. Given the timing of the audit and the certification of 2019 and 2020,

there were some consistent issues arising in these areas for both 2019 and 2020.

18 My audit identified material weaknesses in your internal controls and financial reporting

processes. These issues contributed to the qualification issues covered above. In addition, I have

identified instances where Government systems do not have appropriate updates when tax, levy or

duty rates change.

Page 7 of 10 - Audit of Financial Statements Report – Government of Anguilla Whilst my opinion on the financial statements is not qualified in this regard, the Government may not

be collecting all of the revenue that it is legislatively able to.

19 I have encountered some difficulties during the audit. As indicated in the qualification issues

covered above, there are some gaps in the Government’s records to support transactions and

balances in the financial statements. In some instances, the Government’s Treasury Department has

been unable to obtain information from other Ministries/Departments. In order to deliver the agreed

recovery plan and bring audits up to date, all Government departments will need to support the

completion of the audits by providing requested information on a timely basis. My team and I will

continue to provide engage with and provide support and training to all officers.

Recommendations

20 I have previously raised recommendations arising from my audit, particularly in respect of the areas of

the financial statements that I have needed to qualify my opinion on for several years. I have not

repeated these recommendations in this report as many of the recommendations relate to tax and

levy streams that have been replaced in 2022 by GST. However, I will be issuing an ‘end of

contract’ report that may contain relevant recommendations/areas for improvement for the

Government to address for the 2021 – 2024 financial statements accounts production and

audit cycle.

21 As I have indicated above, I will work with the Government to address any recommendations that

continue to impact on future years’ financial statements, but our collective effort will now focus on

completing the accounts and audit process on a timelier basis.

Independence and Objectivity

22 As part of the finalisation process, I am required to provide you with representations concerning my,

and the audit team’s, independence.

23 I have complied with ethical standards and in my professional judgment, I and the audit team are

independent, and our objectivity is not compromised. There are no relationships between Audit Wales

and the Government of Anguilla that I consider could have an impact on our objectivity and

independence.

STATEMENT OF RESPONSIBILITY

The Annual Statement of Financial Statements has been prepared by the Accountant General in

accordance with the International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) – Cash Basis,

and the Revised Statutes of Anguilla Chapter F27 - Financial Administration and Audit Act, 15

December 2010.

The Accountant General is responsible for the compilation and management of the accounts of

the Government, and for the custody and safety of public moneys and other resources of the

Government. She is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of internal control

designed to provide reasonable assurance that the transactions recorded are within the authority,

and properly record the use of all public funds by the Government of the Anguilla.

In preparing these Reports and Accounts of the consolidated fund, the most appropriate

accounting policies have been consistently applied and supported by reasonable and prudent

judgments and estimates. To the best of my knowledge, the Report and Accounts of the

consolidated fund give a true and fair view of the state of affairs and surplus of the Government

of Anguilla for the financial year ended December 2019.

REPORT OF THE ACCOUNTANT GENERAL

Introduction

The preparation and maintenance of the Reports and Accounts of the consolidated fund of the

Government of Anguilla for the Fiscal year ended 31st December 2019 are guided by the

International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) – Cash Basis, and the Revised Statutes

of Anguilla Chapter F27 - Financial Administration and Audit Act, showing the Law at 15

December 2010.

The Annual Statements of Public Accounts have been prepared using the modified cash basis of

accounting. The Annual Report is an essential element of the Public Accounts of Anguilla as it

illustrated the Government of Anguilla’s commitment to transparency and accountability of public

funds. These statements provide useful information that can be used in assessing the financial

activities of the Government during the year and its financial position. It is intended to meet the

needs of stakeholders including, taxpayers, members of the legislature, investors, creditors and the

public at large.

The FY 2019 Fiscal Review

The financial year 2019 ended positively for the Government of Anguilla as the Government’s

recurrent revenue exceeded the recurrent expenditure which resulted in a recurrent surplus of

XCD$21.1m. Total recurrent revenue collections in 2019 increased favorably by XCD$34.5m,

when compared to the 2018 revenue collections. However, when compared to recurrent

expenditure, 2019 expenditure was XCD $6.4m more than 2018 recurrent expenditures. This

amount was due to the approval of a XCD $10.7m supplementary appropriation aimed at reducing

government’s arrears and providing financial assistance to Government agencies who provide

services to the Anguillan population. When taking a holistic view of the total revenue which

includes recurrent, capital and non-budgeted revenues, the government experienced a surplus of

XCD$7.9m. The surplus was mainly experienced due to a significant increase in Accommodation

Tax, and Custom Duties. On the other side, recurrent expenditure was less than the final budgeted

amount of XCD $224m by XCD $12.2m. Despite the recurrent surplus acknowledged for the fiscal

year, it is still worth noting that the measures and initiatives implemented by all Ministries of

Government to repay debt obligations, reduced expenditure and increased revenue, the efforts

reflected positively on the operations of the Government. This shows that Government is

committed in building pathways to resilience in development.

The Government of Anguilla’s Fiscal Reserve Deposits experienced little activity only the Eastern

Caribbean Central Bank Reserve account of XCD$0.1m experienced interest earned of XCD$3

thousand.

The FY 2019 Budgeted Review

On the 27th March 2019, the budget was passed, assented and came into effect at the House of

Assembly, which comprised of total expenditure of XCD $230.2m comprising of total recurrent Government of Anguilla Report & Accounts - FY 2019

expenditure budget of XCD $213.4m and capital expenditure of XCD $16.8m. On the other

hand, revenue projections were objectively approved with the expectancy to accumulate a total

of XCD $245.5m which comprise of capital revenues of XCD $37.2m, and recurrent revenues of

As seen in Table 1 above, total recurrent revenue of XCD $234 million significantly over-

performed when compared with the projected revenue target of XCD $208.3 million by XCD

$25.7 million with the majority of the over performance stemmed from Taxes on Domestic Good

and Service and duties. When compared to total recurrent revenue for the fiscal year 2018, Government of Anguilla Report & Accounts - FY 2019

revenue also increased by XCD $34.5 million which was mainly due to Taxes on Domestic Good

and Services performing XCD $27.6 million or 93% better in 2019. Despite the significant

impressive performance in 2019, 2018 Duties performed 6% better. Nonetheless, 2019 Taxes on

Domestic Goods and Services and Duties continue to be the highest revenue earners. Together

they accounted for 50% of the total recurrent revenue for 2019.

Taxes on Domestic Goods and Services in 2019 accounted for 25% of total government

earnings. Fines, fees and permits and Taxes, International Trade and Transaction tax together

represented 25% of earnings, contributing 13% and 12% respectively.

Anguilla’s capital receipts favorably and significantly exceeded capital expenditure for both

2019 and 2018.

For the year 2019, recurrent and capital expenditure equaled XCD $222.2 million. However,

capital and recurrent revenue equaled XCD $250.8 million, which generated a surplus of XCD

$28.6 million. Table 5 above reflects the overall performance of both the capital and recurrent

revenue and expenditure for the fiscal years 2019 and 2018.

Graph 2 below compares total recurrent revenue to total recurrent expenditure over a five (5)

year period (2011 – 2019). Government of Anguilla Report & Accounts - FY 2019

revenue steadily rose over the past years. Expenditure also rose comparatively over the same

period, to XCD $212 m. Recurrent revenue exceeded recurrent expenditure by 10%.

Contribution to Fiscal Reserves

Fiscal Reserves are held by the Government of Anguilla as a means of managing cash flow given

the changes in the economic climate. This also is a requirement as per the Borrowing Guidelines

agreed with the United Kingdom Government.

At the end of 2019, the Government of Anguilla ended with fiscal reserves totaling XCD $1.6

million, compared to XCD $1.6 million in 2018. Due to debt amortization payments, the

Government of Anguilla had difficulties in replenishing those reserves when cash savings are

realized. The Government found it more important to reduce arrears of expenditure. Government of Anguilla Report & Accounts - FY 2019

Capital Revenue

The Government of Anguilla realized capital revenue during the 2019 period totaling XCD $16.7

Million. These funds were contributed from the European Development Fund, insurance claims

settlement and local revenue.

26% of the capital expenditure for 2019. The largest spending capital programmes was the

Development (MOF) accounted for $4.3m or 43% of the capital expenditure for 2019.The two

largest spending capital programmes under the Ministry of Finance and Economic Development

were the TI equipment, and the Tourism Sector Development each of which totaled $3m for the

period.

The Ministry of Social Services (MSD) accounted for $0.9m or 1% of the capital expenditure for

2019.The largest spending capital programmes under the Ministry of Social Services was the

Health Services Development and Sports Development Projects totaling $0.9m for the period.

29% of the capital expenditure for 2019. The largest spending capital programmes was the

Renovation of GoA buildings and the replacement of Government vehicles which consumed a

total of XCD $2.6m for the period 2019.

charged to an appropriation account or which by virtue of their purpose must be kept separate

from the appropriation accounts. Both deposits and advances are classified under three broad

International Organizations.

Advances are reimbursable payments made by the Government of Anguilla. Advances decreased

from XCD $292.2m in 2015 to XCD $291.4m in 2019. The bulk of the advances arise from the

XCD$214 million promissory note.

Deposits increased by XCD $5m in 2019. These deposits mainly comprise amounts attributable

to the Department of Commercial Registry, the Department of Land and Surveys, the Labor

Department, and the Treasury Department, which together accounted for XCD $16.9m of all

deposits totaling XCD $22.9m held by the Government of Anguilla.

Public Debt and Contingent Liabilities

The long term liabilities of the Government of Anguilla are composed of both foreign and

domestic debt. Long term debt significantly decreased from $494.5m in 2018 to $467.9m in Government of Anguilla Report & Accounts - FY 2019

they are rounded by the nearest thousand. This does not have a significant

impact for the reader of the accounts.

1.5 Foreign Currency Transactions

The Government operates bank accounts, makes payments and receives

income in foreign currencies: the most predominant of these being the US

dollar. All transactions made or balances held in these currencies are converted

into XCD dollars for the purposes of these accounts at the exchange rate at the

date of the transaction or at the exchange rate at 31 December whichever is

appropriate. Any gains or losses resulting from such transaction of balance are

accounted for in the financial statements.

1.6 Cash Receipts and Payments

Cash receipts include revenue collected from the recurrent and capital

accounts. Cash Payments include expenditure related to the recurrent and

capital accounts.

Under Cash basis IPSAS cash receipts and cash payments may be reported

on a net basis where they either (a) arise from transactions recognized in the

Statement of Cash Receipts and Payments which are administered on behalf

of other parties, or (b) are for items in which the turnover is quick, the amounts

large, and the maturities short. These financial statements report movements

in Advances and Deposits as disclosed in Note 12 and 13 in the Statement of

Cash Receipts and Payments. In addition, non cash movements for write offs

and other adjustments relating to Advances and Deposits have not been

separately identified and have been reported within the Statement of Cash

Receipts and Payments.

These financial statements do not eliminate intra departmental and Ministry

cash transactions and both actual transactions and estimates are prepared on

this basis. This is a departure from cash basis IPSAS disclosure requirements.

1.7 Authorised for Issue

The financial statements were authorised for issue by the Accountant General

on the date that the Chief Auditor of Anguilla signs the audit certificate. The

authorised date for issue is 4th July 2025.

Statements. A negative balance represents a liability in the form of a Bank

Overdraft, which is treated as a component part of cash.

deposit accounts and departmental accounts.

Note 15: Original and Final Approved Budget Comparison

The approved budget is developed on the same accounting basis (cash basis), same

classification basis, and for the same period (from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019)

as the financial statements.

The original budget was approved in the House of Assembly in the early months in 2019.

No changes to the budget were made through legislative measures during the year. The

revised budget is as a result of reallocation, contingency and supplementary warrants

issued during the fiscal year.

The budgets set for receipts are not changed from the original budget, which has been

apportioned outside of the estimate process at a Ministry level as disclosed in Note 3.

A comparison for original and final budgets for recurrent payments is detailed in Note 5 at a

Ministry level.

reconstruction and development of schools, health facilities, governments offices,

ports, roads, the water distribution system, building resilience in information

systems and communications and modernisation of public services and tourism
