DECLARATIONS OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST

Elected Representatives are reminded of their obligation to maintain a clear separation between their personal interests and their duties as an elected member of the Council.

Members should therefore be vigilant to stand aside from decision making when a conflict (or a perceived conflict) arises between their role as an elected representative and any private or other external (either pecuniary or non-pecuniary) interest they may have.

Any such interests should be declared at the commencement of consideration of any such item on this agenda and the member concerned abstain from voting or discussion on the item, or leave the room for the duration of its consideration.
