The Northern Ireland Audit Office has been unable to sign off on Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council s accounts from the 2019/20 financial year due to issues over ownership of council buildings.
Correspondence had been received by the council querying that title was not proven on Coleraine and Portstewart Town Halls, as well as the Joey Dunlop Leisure Centre in Ballymoney, County Antrim.
Council official, Moira Quinn, read a statement from the NI Audit Office to councillors at last week s meeting.
