Rutland County Councillor, Bankruptcy.
I received the following from a reader:
Dear Mr Brookes,
I recently came across this webpage which I found rather intriguing.
It declares Cllr Richardson to be bankrupt. Is he not the same man to be claiming to fight Rutland County Council against corruption?
Yet it seems he himself is not taking responsibility and paying his bills. Is this not corruption from his part??
I would like to say keep up the good work. It is nice to know that someone cares enough for the community.
Kind regards,
Mrs D.Lodge

2 July 2014
Local Government Act 1972 - local government councillor
Formerly an undischarged bankrupt could not hold office as a member in local government or local authority, nor could he/she hold this office within 5 years of receiving his/her discharge. The position changed on 1 April 2004 with the coming in to force of Section 267 of the Enterprise Act 2002 which means that an undischarged bankrupt is not disqualified from so acting (consequently there is also no disqualification from so acting in the 5 years following discharge from bankruptcy).
This means that an existing member against whom a bankruptcy order was made could continue to act as a member.
bankruptcy does still a person from holding many other public positions, such as School Governors,
Charities, Trustees and even being a MOT tester.
