Regulations made under the Localism Act require all Parish Councillors to complete a declaration of interest form, showing their 'Disclosable Pecuniary Interests'. Details of these are held and published by North West Leicestershire District Council. Please use the link below and then scroll down to find members of Whitwick Parish Council.

Conduct and Interests
The Localism Act 2011 made fundamental changes to the system of regulating standards of conduct for elected and co-opted councillors. These came into effect on 1 July 20112. They are available to view on the Policies and Lists page of this website.
Policies, Procedures and Lists
Code of Conduct
Whitwick Parish Council revised its Code of Conduct in 2018 (see Parish Council/ Policies page)
In the interests of consistency, this was previously in line with the Code adopted by North West Leicestershire District Council. The Parish Council is also required to adhere to NWLDC's arrangements for dealing with allegations and complaints.
