Code of Conduct and Registration of Interests

  

  

Leven Parish Council has agreed to adopt the Model Code of Conduct for Parish Councils.  All councillors have signed that they will conform to this, and also signed individual schedules of interest which the Clerk will record in the Council's Register of Interests.

 

 

Leven Parish Councillors have always declared in interest if they have had an interest in any matter that has been discussed in the past, so they found no difficulty in conforming to the submission of a schedule of interest, some of which could be very personal. 

 

 

As all Parish Councillors are unpaid voluntary workers, there is a feeling throughout many Parish Councils that this new regulation is rather overbearing.
