After some initial reluctance, our Monitoring Officer eventually agreed that District Councillors needed to be registered in their own right. It was then quite simple to have him bring a paper to the Executive Board recommending that he act as the single contact point for all Councillor registrations (so the annual registration fees get paid by the Council direct). We are just now going through the process of getting individual Councillors to sign the relevant bits of paper for the first time. As you're just down the road from us, I suggest you get your Monitoring Officer to telephone him and ask for a copy of the papers he prepared. -- Graham Smith Member of North Kesteven District Council www.n-kesteven.gov.uk > -----Original Message----- > From: This list is for those interested in Data Protection issues > [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of steve bramall > Sent: Tuesday, February 10, 2004 1:40 PM > To: [log in to unmask] > Subject: Paying for Council Members Notification > > > Hi > > The debate regarding the payment of Council Members data protection > notification fees has risen here at Newark & Sherwood.
