R3-2

July 1997

Response position and delivery status are recorded separately. Acceptance does not establish implementation.

Recommendation

The present National Code of Local Government Conduct should be replaced by a statement of the 'General Principles of Conduct for Local Councillors'. This should be a Great Britain document, issued by the Secretaries of State for the Environment, for Scotland, and for Wales, and approved by affirmative resolution of both Houses of Parliament.
