Are computers and stationery provided for councillors?
Yes. Computers offer a fast and efficient means for councillors to keep in touch with their community. They also help to reduce communications costs. More and more council business is being transacted electronically. To make sure that they are kept fully briefed, councillors need to use computer systems. Waveney District Council provides councillors with a PC and printer. All councillors receive IT induction training and ongoing support as required. Councillors are also provided with an email address that appears on Waveney District Council’s website along with their contact details. Council stationery, along with photocopying, and postage of letters on council business are provided. Additionally, there is a Members’ Room at the Town Hall, Lowestoft where current publications and council documents may be viewed.
