Complaints
Complaints against councillors
We have a code of conduct that sets out the standards of conduct that we expect of councillors and co-opted members of the Council.
You can read the code of conduct in the Council Constitution or email monitoring.officer@southtyneside.gov.uk for a copy.
If you consider that a councillor or co-opted member has not observed the code of conduct, you can complain to the Monitoring Officer who will decide whether the complaint should be investigated.
To contact the Monitoring Officer:
- Email: monitoring.officer@southtyneside.gov.uk
- Write to: Monitoring Officer, Town Hall and Civic Offices, Westoe Road, South Shields, NE33 2RL
