The authority had appointed an investigator in respect of complaints about the conduct of Cllr Linda Bromley (Ind, Warwick West) and held a hearing at Leamington town hall today (Friday).

The hearing panel, made up of Mrs Bromley’s fellow councillors and guided by an independent advisor, agreed with the findings of investigating officer Peter Oliver, who said Cllr Bromley failed to adhere to the code in respect of all three complaints.

The first complaint, made by the council’s chief executive Chris Elliot, was about Cllr Bromley’s actions in contacting ADT project manager Chris Neville, who was carrying out work to install CCTV and lighting for Warwick District Council.

The second , also made by Mr Elliott, concerned Cllr Bromley’s alleged failure to acknowledge that she had received and understood the council’s new code of conduct.

And the third was due to allegations Cllr Bromley had failed to adhere to the code of conduct relating to objectivity, honesty and accountability when questioning Lydia Turpin - formerly of the Jackie Turpin Amateur Boxing Club - during the consideration of a Warwick Community Forum grant application for the club at a public meeting in October 2012.

Cllr Bromley has said she will soon make a statement regarding the decision.
