Directors' expenses

The LGA is a national membership body representing local authorities across England and Wales. Our Chief Executive and Executive Directors are required to visit councils and lead events across the country, as well as attend meetings in Westminster.

The published tables, which are updated monthly, detail costs reimbursed to relevant staff incurred for attendance at meetings and events around the UK on behalf of the LGA in line with our Employee Expenses and Subsistence Policy and not for employee’s financial gain.
