Minutes:

Code of Conduct

A Member questioned whether the possibility of an elected Member trying to sue the City of London Corporation could be considered a breach of the Code of Conduct.

 

The Comptroller and City Solicitor clarified that this was not in breach of the Code of Conduct and that Members were entitled to exercise their legal rights. He added that, should any legal action be unsuccessful, the Member would be liable to pay the relevant associated costs.
