Members' Allowances
Section 107 of the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001 deregulates the payment
of Members’ allowances – but not expenses – to police authorities. It also makes
provision for police authorities to make payments to the Lay/Independent Members’
on their Standards Committee.
Humberside Police Authority's scheme is based on the principles of the guidance
issued by the APA’s Independent Panel and the scheme originally introduced on
1 December 2001.
Members agreed the current Scheme at the AGM on 19 June 2007. Click here to view the report that was submitted to this meeting.
Humberside Police Authority's current Allowances Scheme came into effect on 1
July 2007 and may be amended from time to time. Any changes will be published
before they take effect.
The current basic allowance is £8,329 per member. Members who have special responsibilities
