CODE OF CONDUCT

Every authority is required to adopt a Code of Conduct that sets out rules governing the behaviour of its members. All elected, co-opted and independent members of local authorities, including parish councils, fire, police and national park authorities, are covered by the Code.

The current Model Code of Conduct for members was issued by the government on 4 April 2007.
