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.
