Members Allowances

The Council is made up of 48 councillors elected every four years. All members receive a basic Members Allowance and others (such as Committee chairs and Cabinet members) receive an additional allowance in recognition of their added responsibilities. The duty of councillors is to the whole community, but they have a special duty to their constituents, including those who did not vote for them.

North Norfolk District Council has made a scheme of allowances for Councillors (.doc 29kb) with effect from 1 April 2011 to 31 March 2012. 

The following document shows the allowances paid to Members in 2010/11.
