Extract
from the Controller and Auditor General’s October 2010 Good Practice Guide:
Guidance for members of local authorities about the Local Authorities (Members’
Interests) Act 1968
Appointment
as the local authority’s representative on another organisation
5.47 You may have
been appointed as the authority’s representative on the governing body of a
council-controlled organisation or another body (for example, a community-based
trust).
5.48 That role will
not usually prevent you from participating in authority matters concerning the
other organisation – especially if the role gives you specialised knowledge
that it would be valuable to contribute.
5.49 However, you
could create legal risks to the decision if your participation in that decision
raises a conflict between your duty as a member of the local authority and any
duty to act in the interests of the other organisation. These situations are not
clear cut and will often require careful consideration and specific legal
advice.
5.50 Similarly, if
your involvement with the other organisation raises a risk of predetermination,
the legal risks to the decision of the authority as a result of your participation
may be higher, for example, if the other organisation has made a formal
submission to the authority as part of a public submissions process.
