Committee details

Conduct Committee

Members of the public are welcome to attend our meetings to watch them in person at any of the venues across the County. Publicly accessible meetings held in County Hall will be webcast, which means they are available to be watched live or recorded on our website. Please see our webcasting notice here. The Committee may, in certain circumstances, resolve to hold part of the meeting in private. If this is the case, you will be required to leave the meeting.

Purpose of committee

The purpose of this Committee is to determine whether a councillor or co-opted member has failed to comply with the Council’s Code of Conduct and if so, to determine what action, if any, to take.  The Committee also considers the granting of a dispensation to a member or co-opted member allowing him/her to participate in any discussion at a meeting or vote in relation to any matter in which they have a disclosable pecuniary interest.

 

The Committee will normally be dealing with confidential information and consequently the greater part of its meetings will be in private.  Further information about the Committee can be found in the Constitution.
