The Chief Executive Officer considered the
report on the Member’s Allowances Scheme presented to Members
at the informal meeting of the County Council Members held on 17

Members at the informal meeting and all relevant information,
agreed, under his emergency delegated powers:
• An increase of 1.75% to the Basic Allowance and all
unit-based Special Responsibility Allowances for the 2022/23
financial year; and
• That, if there are any increases in the travel and
subsistence rates payable to staff, a similar increase be made to
the rates in the Members’ Allowances Scheme, to come into
effect at the same time.
By whom: Richard Flinton, Chief Executive Officer, under his
emergency delegated powers and after consultation with Members at
the informal meeting of the County Council held on 17 November
