The Member Conduct Panel of Leicestershire County Council was scheduled to consider two complaints made under the Members' Code of Conduct. The meeting was held in the Gartree Committee Room at County Hall, Glenfield.

Complaints under the Members' Code of Conduct

The panel was scheduled to consider two separate complaints lodged under Part 5(a) of the Leicestershire County Council Constitution, which outlines the Members' Code of Conduct. These were designated as Case A and Case B.

The report pack indicates that the public were likely to be excluded from the meeting during the consideration of these complaints, in accordance with Section 100(a) of the Local Government Act 1972. This is because the information relating to these complaints was considered to be exempt from public disclosure.

For Case A, the report pack included documents on pages 3 to 118. For Case B, the report pack contained documents on pages 119 to 152. The specific details of the complaints and the evidence presented were not made public.

The members of the panel scheduled to attend were Dr. John Bloxham CC, Dr. Sarah Hill CC, Mr. Bill Piper CC, Mr. James Poland CC, and Mrs. Deborah Taylor CC.
