Transparency Code
TRANSPARENCY CODE
The Transparency Code is issued to meet the Government’s desire to place more power into citizens’ hands to increase democratic accountability. Transparency gives local people the tools and information they need to hold public bodies to account.

A current list of Councillors or member names and responsibilities
