Promoting high standards

Councils are required to establish Standards Committees, as part of a new ethical framework for public authorities established by the Government. The aim is to promote high standards of ethical conduct among elected councillors.

The role of this Committee is to advise Haringey Council on the adoption of a local Code of Conduct for Councillors, update and monitor the Code as necessary and to be responsible for implementing the Code and providing training for Members on ethical conduct.
