Responsibility for determining remuneration for members of relevant local government bodies in Wales rests independently with the Democracy and Boundary Commission Cymru (the Commission) not the Welsh Government. The Commission is responsible for setting the remuneration framework for elected, appointed and co-opted members of local government bodies and for determining the appropriate remuneration levels and associated payments
On this basis the Welsh Government has not undertaken a separate review of the remuneration paid to lay members of local authority governance and audit committees, the Band 2 classification or the daily fee attached to these roles.
The methodology, evidence and rationale underpinning the Commissions’ determinations are set out in the relevant annual reports, which published by the independent body.
