Explanatory Notes:
1. The Basic Allowance has to be paid to every Councillor and at the same level for each elected Councillor. It recognises the expenses incurred in
being a Councillor for Ward work and domestic costs. Special Responsibility Allowances are paid to recognise the additional roles some Councillors
perform beyond the role of a local Councillor.
2. The travel allowances shown above are the amounts reclaimed for car mileage or public transport fares.
3. When a number of Councillors travel to the same event and share the use of a car, only the driver can claim a mileage allowance.
4. The Subsistence Allowances shown above are the amounts reclaimed for bus and train tickets, meals and hotel accommodation whilst on official
business. They do not include hotel costs paid directly by the Council.
Further information on the allowances arrangements may be obtained from the Member Support Officer, Mendip District Council, Council Offices, Shepton
Mallet, Somerset (Tel: 01749 341341) or email enquires to: [email address]
