Special Responsibility Allowance

5.—(1) A council may, in addition to any allowance under regulation 3 or 4, make a payment to a councillor by way of an allowance (“special responsibility allowance”) if they are satisfied that he has special responsibilities in relation to the discharge of the functions of a council.

(2) The amount of the special responsibility allowance shall be such amount as is determined by the council, but the allowance shall not exceed such amount as the Department may from time to time determine.

(3) Where a councillor does not have throughout a year any such special responsibilities as entitles him to a special responsibility allowance, his entitlement shall be to payment of such part of that allowance as bears to the whole the same proportion as the number of days during which he has such special responsibilities bears to the number of days in that year.
