To ensure that they are not financially penalised for carrying out their Council duties, Councillors receive from the Council an allowance or allowances. The allowances paid to Councillors are contained within the Council's Members Allowances Scheme. The main allowances paid are:

• a basic allowance
• special responsibility allowance
• dependants' carers' allowance
• travel allowance

All allowances are subject to National Insurance and income tax deductions where appropriate.

Full details of the Allowance scheme can be found in Part 9 of the Council Constitution (see link below)

You can view the total amounts paid to individual Members for each financial year in the documents below.
