Council Staff Team
Under Section 112 of the Local Government Act 1972, the Council is required to appoint officers as it considers necessary for the proper discharge of its functions. The Act, along with other legislation, assigns a number of statutory responsibilities and duties to the Proper Officer of the Council, a role fulfilled by the Town Clerk.
The Council’s Standing Orders formally designate the Clerk as the Proper Officer, ensuring transparency and clarity for the public regarding the extent of the Clerk’s authority and responsibilities.
In addition, Section 151 of the Local Government Act 1972 requires local councils to ensure that one of its officers has overall responsibility for the administration of the Council’s financial affairs. This role is fulfilled by the Responsible Financial Officer (RFO).
