Parties' accounts 2011

On 2 August 2012, we published the statements of accounts of parties and accounting units whose income and/or expenditure exceeded £250,000 in 2011 on PEF Online .

This page provides trends of income, expenditure and net assets (or liabilities) for those political parties. PEF Online allows users to search statement of accounts down to the category level. Figures on this page have not been consolidated with those of the parties' accounting units.

The 2011 statement of accounts for parties and accounting units with income and/or expenditure under £250,000 can also be viewed on PEF Online.

The 2011 accounts were the first set to be published on PEF Online. Accounts for 2010 and earlier can still be accessed through the register of statements of accounts on our website. We intend to publish all historic statement of accounts on PEF Online when resources become available.
