Parish Council Policies and Procedures
The way that the Parish Council meetings operate is determined by its Standing Orders, and there are also Financial Regulations which set out how its finances will operate, including its policy on tenders and contracts. All Councillors must abide by the Parish Council’s Code of Conduct, which includes a requirement for Councillors to declare various interests.
The Parish Council maintains an Asset Register, containing details of everything it owns. A Risk Assessment document has been drawn up, to ensure that the Parish Council has taken the necessary steps to protect its assets, and to ensure its continuing operation and financial viability..
If required, there is a Complaints Procedure, although we hope that no-one will ever need to use this. Complaints concerning the Council, members, officers, or its procedures or administration should initially be put in writing to the Clerk or Chairman.
A full list of those policies held by the council. You can request copies of these at any time from the clerk. These policies are now reviewed every 5 years (except the Standing Orders, Financial Regulations & Safeguarding Policy which are reviewed annually) or when notified of a statutory change.
