This is my personal statement and does not represent Horsham Rural City Council.
As most people know, at the Horsham council meeting on June 27, a motion with serious allegations towards myself was endorsed by four of my fellow councillors to refer me to the Local Government Inspectorate for further investigation.
I believe all these concerns should follow the processes outlined in the council’s Councillor Code of Conduct, Local Government Association and governance rules, which councillors all agreed to abide by in the oath taken when elected.
When I finally receive details and particulars of the allegations made against me, I will respond accordingly.
