The disclosure of pecuniary interests forms that each serving councillor must complete can be found on the Leeds City Council site here. Read the DPI Regulations here

The Code of Conduct applies to all Swillington Village Councillors. Our Councillors must follow these principles: selflessness, honesty, objectivity, accountability, openness and leadership. 

The number of councillors a village council may have is determined by the number of citizens there are on the electoral register. In Swillington's case the number of village councillors is nine.
