Member Remuneration and Allowances

The Vale of Glamorgan Council is required to agree, publish and maintain an annual Schedule of Member Remuneration

The Schedule of Member Remuneration sets out details of the specific payments that it intends to make to Elected Members and Co-opted Members in accordance with the levels of remuneration and allowances determined by Democracy and Boundary Commission Cymru.

It provides details of the remuneration of Members through the payment of a Basic, Senior or Civic Salary and fees which are payable to our own Members and statutory Co-opted Members. The Schedule also provides details of the Care, Travel and Subsistence Allowances which apply.

Details of all financial remuneration and allowances paid by the Council each year to each Member and Co-opted Member will be published on the Council's website at the end of each financial year by 30 September.

Please see below allowances paid to Members and Co-opted Members in previous years in acordance with the Schedules of Remuneration:
