Sometimes, issues will arise that do not fit comfortably within this guidance. At other times, an Officer or Member may feel aggrieved by what they perceive to be a breach of this protocol. In each case an Officer (including a political assistant) should normally consult their Director of Service or another senior manager for guidance on how best to act. For their part, Members should normally seek advice from their Group Leader or any other person that their Group Leader nominates to advise on relationships between Officers and Members.
