In this bumper episode, we discuss the latest findings of ICAEW’s Business Confidence Monitor and why three-quarters of councils in England are at least a year behind in publishing audited accounts.

Philippa Lamb is joined by Iain Wright, Managing Director of Reputation and Influence; Alison Ring, Director of Public Sector and Taxation; Sophie Wales, Director of Regulatory Policy; and Richard Jones, Senior Technical Manager in Tax Policy.
