Registers of interests

A register of interests is important to be able to identify the potential conflicts of interest of councillors, councillor advisors, chief executive officers (CEO) and senior executive officers.

To view an extract of a councillors’ current register of interests visit the relevant council’s website.

Online register of interests forms

To make registering and updating your interests easy while improving transparency you can use the register of interests electronic form.

Complete the forms using a desktop computer so you can save your register file.

Annual confirmation – due 30 July

All councillors and councillor advisors are required to check their registers of interests and confirm that it is up to date.

You must complete a confirmation for yourself and a separate one for each of your related persons, using the approved forms, and submit these to the CEO by 30 July each year.
