Under the Local Government Act 2000, all elected city and parish councillors must complete a register of interests form. This form is to detail any financial or other interests that might cause a conflict of interest in their councillor duties.
Councillors are required to register their interests within 28 days of taking office. They must also keep their statutory register updated, notifying the council’s Monitoring Officer of any changes within 28 days of their occurrence.
Additionally, councillors must declare any interests in matters discussed at council meetings. This declaration is made through their general declaration form, or at Council, Cabinet, or committee meetings they attend.
