New travel booking system

Legislation on how local authority posts are politically restricted.
Legislation sets out certain local authority posts that are politically restricted and the political activities the post holders are barred from.
Employees in politically restricted posts are disqualified from being politically active, either within Essex County Council or outside of work.
The politically restricted posts policy (PDF, 439KB) explains the restrictions that apply and the guide (PDF, 211KB) sets out the posts which are politically restricted with detailed explanation of the criteria.
