To receive information on Councillors who traded with the Council during 2023/24.

The Audit, Governance and Procurement Lead Manager presented the Publication of Information on Councillors who traded with the Council during 2023/24.

As part of the annual account process, Councillors disclose whether they have had an interest in a company/companies that received payment from the council.  In order to provide better transparency, additional details of any Councillors who have an interest in companies that benefit from trading with the council would be taken to Full Council via the Audit Committee as a separate report each year and published on the council’s website.

During the reporting period, two councillors were associated with companies who had received payments from the Council in 2023/24 being, Councillor S Burrell in relation to Peace of Mind Home Care and Councillor Carolyn Healy in respect of Red Kite Ltd.

Members noted the report.
