Data supplied by Perth & Kinross Council in 2005

Perth & Kinross Council supplied no information on the Common Good assets of Abernethy.

Common Good Fund

There is no mention of an Abernethy Common Good Fund in the Annual Accounts of Perth & Kinross Council for 2005-06 despite the Account stating that the Council administer the Common Good Funds for 10 former burghs within Perth & Kinross.

My Commentary

Perth & Kinross Council are currently undertaking a review of Common Good assets.

At the Perth and Kinross Council Strategic Policy and Resources Committee of 13 December 2006, it was resolved,
 
"that the Executive Director (Corporate Services) be instructed to carry out a review to identify all the common good property held by the Council, to make recommendations about the management and to consider whether such an exercise could be funded from the various common good funds."

On 24 September 2007, the Council advised me that "the programming of this exercise is still under discussion, together with how it will be resourced."
