Did you know we have a dedicated powers and duties tool?

Available to LG Inform Plus subscribers, it provides information on what current legislation gives English and Welsh councils the power to do and what it requires them to do in law. Advanced searching and filtering options make it easy to find specific powers and duties based on legislation, business function and keyword, and results are easily exported in commonly used formats.

Within 5 working days of the meeting or as soon as is reasonably practicable the panel must send its report to the local authority, the complainant and, where one has been appointed, his advocate, the independent person appointed and any other person whom the panel consider has sufficient interest in the case to warrant their receiving such a notice.
