" Cornwall Council has a procedure in place whereby the Monitoring Officer is notified if any councillor could be in breach of section 106 of the Local Government Finance Act 1992 due to non-payment of council tax. This enables the Monitoring Officer to advise the Member of his responsibilities under that section. In addition at the outset of any meeting of the Council where the business to be transacted comes within the provisions of section 106, general advice regarding Member responsibilities is provided in writing and verbally by the Chairman or the Monitoring Officer. The Council is confident, therefore, that no Member has committed an offence under this legislation."
