Join Walsall Council’s Independent Remuneration Panel

Walsall Council invites members of the public to join the Independent Remuneration Panel, which plays a crucial role in ensuring fair and equitable allowances for Councillors.

As a panel member alongside two others, you’ll evaluate the responsibilities and time commitments of Councillors. Your recommendations will help shape a just allowance scheme for them. This short-term commitment requires only a few days of your time and is a voluntary position.

Throughout the review process, you’ll receive support from the Director of Governance, access evidence, and assess information to inform your recommendations on Councillors’ allowances and expenses. Your work will conclude with a public report presented to the Full Council.
