Declaration of Interests

We keep records of Register of Interests and other interests relating to appointments to outside bodies and gifts and hospitality, if any, for each councillor.

The current Register of Interests for each councillor can be viewed under their individual profiles on the Council Chamber

Members allowance and member expense scheme

Elected members are entitled to:
