Alternatively, you can print and complete the pdf version.

If you're sending your completed form by post it should be addressed to:

The Monitoring Officer

Find out more about the arrangements we make for dealing with complaints about members.

Please note that the monitoring officer will only deal with complaints about the behaviour of a councillor under the code of conduct. They won't deal with complaints about parish or town councils and their procedures or complaints about the declaration and registration of disclosable pecuniary interests, which should be referred to the police.

If you make a complaint to the monitoring officer it must relate to why you think a councillor hasn't followed the code of conduct.
