The Local Government Transparency Code 2015 was developed to increase democratic accountability, making it easier for local people to access information about councils’ activities. Transparency is the foundation of local accountability, giving people the information and tools they need to participate in local democracy and decision making. Under the code, all councils (including principal authorities, towns and parishes) are required to publish regular information on the following:
- All payments made over £500 on a quarterly basis
- All contracts and orders for goods and services over £5,000 on a quarterly basis
- Details of Land and Buildings owned or operated by the Council
- Grants made to voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations within the financial year
- Details about staffing, senior officer pay (if it exceeds £50,000) and the pay multiple
- Details of any Trade Union facility time
- Details of the Parking Account or any parking spaces
- Cases of fraudulent activity investigated during the year
- Details of any waste contracts let
