Request

This is a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act. I would like to request the following information:

 

(1) Please state how many complaints the council received about councillors’ conduct for the years (i) 2024 (ii) 2025 and (iii) 2026

 

(2) For each year stated above, please state how many complaints were about (i) a Labour councillor’s conduct (ii) a Reform UK councillor’s conduct (iii) a Conservative councillor’s conduct (iv) a Liberal Democrat councillor’s conduct (v) a Green Party councillor’s conduct (vi) an Independent councillor’s conduct.

 

(3) For each complaint, please state the outcome. I imagine that the council would use phrases such as ‘no further action’ or ‘complaint upheld’ to describe the outcome.

 

I would like to receive the information in an Excel spreadsheet.
