Code of Conduct for Councillors Mediation
Peaceworks have mediated cases under the Local Authorities (Model Code of Conduct) Order 2007.
Authorities will be aware that the National Model Code of Conduct has been repealed by the Localism Act, leaving it up to local Councils to make their own arrangements in terms of a Code of Conduct. Authorities are awaiting (April 2012) the production of the Local Government Association's Code, which unlike the previous Code of Conduct, will not be mandatory.
Remember that Peaceworks offers training for elected Members and council officers in many aspects of their day to day work, such as Chairing meetings, Leading and Managing, Assertiveness, Public Speaking, Handling Difficult Conversations, Delivering difficult news and Communication skills.
Check out our special page on Local Authorities
The Localism Bill is now an Act with effect from November 2011, and brings in wholesale changes to the standards agenda, (see the abolition of the standards board on page 8 of the Plain English Guide). If you would like to speak to us about how we can help with a standards case, or any dispute or conflict at Local Authority level please do make contact for a discussion with our team.

An excellent course - you will come away much better equipped to deal positively with those you meet
The process of mediation should be common practice in society.
Very enjoyable course in a safe, engaging learning environment. Thank you
Experience and insights of the trainers is a major bonus of this course
'It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it. One must work at it.'
I found the course extremely invigorating - it really stimulated me and I felt I had learned so much
It felt more like de-constructing some existing skills and putting them back together in a new way
I loved the informality of the group within the formality of the training
A great course for anyone working in an environment using interpersonal skills, dealing with conflict
Would love the chance to attend again in the future. I used some of the skills acquired on the same day
Peaceworks is an outstanding organisation and the skills of your team have brought about so much reconciliation
I am now better placed to tackle conflict at home and in the workplace
'Micha was terrific and put everyone at ease, and gave everyone plenty of opportunity to say their bit.'
What a great couple of weeks I've had with Peaceworks!
This was a very high quality course. An excellent intro to conflict resolution and mediation
The course was exceptionally well facilitated (the best I've ever experienced)
