Agenda and minutes

All Members who believe they have a Disclosable Pecuniary or other Interest in any matter to be considered at the meeting must declare that interest and, having regard to the circumstances described in Section 9 and Appendix B of the Councillors’ Code of Conduct, leave the meeting while the matter is discussed.

Members are reminded that under the Code, a general dispensation has been provided to all members of the Council (who do not otherwise have a Disclosable Pecuniary Interest) to take part and vote on items on the Council agenda for 7th March 2024 in relation to setting the Council Tax or a precept under the Local Government Finance Act 1992.

Members should also note the provisions of the Local Government Finance Act 1992 which require Members to declare and refrain from voting on any matter relating to the calculation of the Council Tax if they are two months or more in Council Tax arrears.

(The report and recommendations of the Audit & Corporate Governance Committee will follow after its meeting to be held on 29^th February 2024.  The report and Treasury Management Strategy is published with the supplementary agenda for that meeting).
