County councillor complaints
Our county councillors all adhere to the Kent Code of Conduct for Members.
Step 1
Read:
- our guide on how to make a complaint (PDF, 161.8 KB)
- process for handling Code of Conduct complaints (PDF, 543.3 KB)
- the Kent Code of Conduct for Members (PDF, 196.1 KB).
Complaints alleging that councillors have breached the code of conduct are reviewed by a Monitoring Officer and an Independent Person. They decide if any action should be taken and if the matter should be referred to the Standards Committee.
They will not deal with complaints about things that are not covered by the Kent Code of Conduct for Members. Your complaint must state why you think the councillor has not followed the Kent Code of Conduct for Members.
