Register of Financial and Other Interests

In demonstrating my continuing committment to Transparency, I am posting my Councillors Financial and Other Interests. Although these can be viewed under Freedom of Information legislation at County Hall, I'm anxious to achieve a first by being the first IW Councillor (I think) to post my Register online, here's hoping, I won't be inundated by Spammers for doing so!
