Guidance is available to support you in completing the Register of Interests Form, available here:
Parish Councils must, as a legal requirement, also publish their Register of Interests on their own website if they have one.
Under paragraph 4 ‘Land’ of the Register of Interests form, Councillors must declare their place of residence, whether or not they own the property, if it lies within the Parish Council boundary.
Under section 32 of the Localism Act 2011, Parish Councillors may request that a sensitive interest is withheld from the public register where disclosure could lead to intimidation or violence, and any such requests must be made in writing to the Monitoring Officer by emailing monitoringofficer@northyorks.gov.uk
