Code of Conduct for Members
The Code of Conduct covers areas of individual behaviour such as Members not abusing their position or not misusing their authority's resources. In addition there are rules governing disclosure of private interests and withdrawal from meetings where Members have relevant interests. Members are also required to record on the public register their financial and other interests.
You may have questions about interpretation. If so, the Standards Board website has a user-friendly "frequently asked questions" page which may assist. See the link on the right.
