Constitution Part 5 - Protocol on Elected Member/ Officer relations

Elected Members and Officers who are members of outside organisations and other bodies

All representatives or other individuals invited or appointed to serve on Council bodies will have the relevant Codes of Conduct, procedures and protocols drawn to their attention and be required to observe them. Included in Part 5 of the Constitution is a Guide for Elected Members and Officers serving on Outside Organisations and Other Bodies. The Guide is intended to give a general overview of the issues which affect Elected Members and Officers who are appointed to outside organisations and other bodies (see also Part 7 of the Council’s Constitution). The Council’s Monitoring Officer will be able to provide further advice to expand upon any of the issues raised.
