Code of Conduct Complaints

From the 8 May 2008, North Norfolk District Council will be handling complaints from members of the public about misconduct by district and parish councillors, under changes to the framework for assessing councillors' conduct being introduced by the Government.

The Standards Board for England, which has dealt with these complaints until now, will monitor councils in their new role. It will step in if a complaint is so serious that a council would not be able to impose a suitable punishment, or if it feels a council's standards committee is failing in its duties.

After 8 May 2008 if you want to complain about the conduct of a member of North Norfolk District Council or a member of one of our parish or town councils, you must submit your complaint to:

The Monitoring Officer
North Norfolk District Council
Council Offices
Holt Road
Cromer
NR27 9EN
