Meeting: 16/05/2017 - County Council (Item 126)

Declarations of Interest

Members are reminded that they must declare their interests orally at the meeting and specify (a) the nature of the interest and (b) which items on the agenda are the relevant items. This applies also to items where members have interests by virtue of their membership of a district council in Oxfordshire.

Decision:

There were none.

Minutes:

The Chairman reminded members of the need to return the forms for notifying financial and other interests (the Register of Members Interests form) within 28 days of the date of election – i.e. by Thursday, 1st June at the latest, as failure to do so could be subject to formal investigation as a criminal offence.  Returning councillors also needed to confirm in writing that their current registration was up to date and correct.  An email would suffice by way of a declaration to this effect.
