Finance

The Finance department is responsible for recording of accounting related transactions. The main function is the accounting for the First Nation within each department. This is done through a logical sequence of transactions beginning with budget preparation and ending with financial statement compilation. This team provides financial information and advice to Council, Department Directors and the General Assembly. The audit is completed by an external auditor.
