Statutory Register of Members' Interests

Introduction by the Monitoring Officer

Under the Local Government Act 2000, all Councillors have to sign a declaration to abide by and uphold the City Council's Code of Conduct for Members. A copy of this can be found in the Constitution under Appendix 6 (A) (along with other Protocols and related Guidance). A copy of the Code of Conduct for Members may be viewed by ‘clicking’ here. Under the Code all councillors are required to register various interests.

The Director of Legal Services and Projects, as the City Council's Monitoring Officer, has to maintain the Register of Members’ Interests that have been brought to his attention. Councillors are obliged, by law, to keep their registration up-to-date and to inform the Monitoring Officer of any changes within 28 days of the relevant event. A Councillor's failure to register interests can be the subject of a complaint to the Standards Board for England (www.standardsboard.co.uk).

A copy of the up-to-date Statutory Register of Members Interests can be inspected, free of charge, at Corporate Services, The Guildhall, Burton Street, Nottingham, NG1 4BT during normal office hours. A small

fee will be payable if a copy is required.

In keeping with the Council's e-governance agenda, the Monitoring Officer has placed an electronic copy of the Register of each Members’ Interests on the website and these records may be viewed by ‘clicking’ here

This electronic copy is not the Statutory Register although every effort will be taken to ensure that the electronic copy continues to match the Statutory Register of Members' Interests kept at the address above.
