Hayle West

Cornwall Council ward

Ward Summary

Councillor Peter Channon (Reform UK) represents Hayle West with a perfect 100% attendance record across 37 meetings and sits on a notably large number of committees. However, he has accumulated three conduct cases, including one serious finding in which an assessment concluded he breached the Code of Conduct following complaints of disrespectful behaviour, slanderous statements, and bullying directed at Hayle Town Council's clerk. His travel expenses of £1,186.65 place him in the top 10% of all councillors, significantly above the median of £63.50, which may warrant further scrutiny.
