Under Part 15 of the Local Government Act 2001, each member of a local authority is required to make an annual written declaration of his or her interests to the authority's Ethics Registrar. Where the Ethics Registrar becomes aware of a possible contravention of any requirement of the local authority ethics framework, he or she is required to bring the matter to the attention of the Manager or Cathaoirleach. The consequences of such a contravention are set out in Part 15 of the Act.
