CORRECTION

In paragraph 3.2 of the report it says: “The allegations centred around claims for travel and childcare expenses for the period between October 2020 and March 2021, when Councillor Phillips was Mayor.”

Councillor Phillips was Mayor between May 2019 and May 2020.

The period referred to in paragraph 3.2 is part, but not all, of the period when claims were submitted. The investigation covered claims submitted between October 2019 and March 2022.

This does not affect the substance of the report, the conclusions or recommendations. It is simply correcting references to dates in the covering report.
