Dated this 25 day of June 2012 Head of Paid Service Notes 1. A personal interest exists where a decision on a matter would affect to a greater extent than other people in the District – (a) the well-being, financial position, employment or business of the Councillor, their family or any person with whom they had a close association; (b) a body employing those persons, any firm in which they are a partner and any company of which they are directors; (c) any corporate body in which those persons have a beneficial interest in a class of securities exceeding the nominal value of £25,000; or (d) the Councillor’s registerable financial and other interests. 2. A personal interest becomes a prejudicial interest where a member of the public (who has knowledge of the circumstances) would reasonably regard the Member’s personal interest as being so significant that it is likely to prejudice the Councillor’s judgement of the public interest.
