If the matter relates to an interest in your register of pecuniary interests then you must take no part in its consideration and you must leave the room for that item.

Members are reminded that it is a requirement of the Code of Conduct that they should also keep their written Register of Interests up to date. Any changes to the interests recorded on that form should be made as soon as reasonably practicable, and within 28 days of the change.
