Hello and a very warm welcome to the Conduct, Behaviour and Ethical Standards Homepage. By navigating from the left hand side of this page, you can easily access details of events, web–links, publications and 'The Marketplace' etc. Through the 'Documentation Area' links you can access relevant legislation, key references and resources, newsletters and practical documentation.

We are continually adding to the library and if there is anything you would like to contribute or see added, please do not hesitate to contact us.

You might also like to know about additional services in this area available from the Better Governance Forum. These include:

• In–House and Bespoke Training – we can deliver full and half day training workshops to meet the needs of both elected members and independent members of standards committees, as well as officers concerned with monitoring and encouraging high standards of conduct. Training can cover any or all aspects of the ethical framework and has a strong practical content
• Independent Investigative Services – we can assist standards committees and monitoring officers with investigations
• Conciliation and Mediation Service – our new service to help resolve complaints regarding member conduct will be launched shortly.

And don’t forget out Regional Workshops in June and November and our Annual Conference on 22nd November in London.
