Code of Corporate Governance
Corporate governance is the system by which local authorities direct and control their functions and relate to their communities.
The basic principles of good Corporate Governance require the Council to carry out its functions in a way that demonstrates accountability, effectiveness, integrity, inclusivity and is up to date. The Council fully supports these principles. The Code of Corporate Governance is a public statement of the Council’s commitment to these principles and sets out clearly the way in which it will meet that commitment.
Another key document is the Monitoring Officer Protocol that provides some general information on how the statutory requirements of the Monitoring Offcier will be discharged.
Both documents are available to download below.
