Members' allowances

Allowances are paid to all our elected councillors and co-opted members appointed to certain committees.

You're entitled to know exactly how much each councillor receives and the type of allowances they are paid, including travel and subsistence.

We have a legal obligation to publish this information under the Local Government and Housing Act 1989 and the Local Government Act 2000. It is also in accordance with the Local Authorities (Members' Allowances) (England) Regulations 2003.

The allowances payable to councillors in Salford are set by an independent remuneration panel on members' allowances. This follows government guidelines.

If a member's term of office does not cover the whole of a year, the amount of allowance payable will be proportionate to the actual term served.

Purchasing cards used by members

A number of members have purchasing cards, these are assigned to individuals for low-value card purchases. All transactions are tracked and recorded to make sure they comply with the council’s financial policies. In the spirit of transparency, aggregate spend on purchasing cards by the City Mayor’s office was £5,890.61 for 2023-24 and £8,380.91 for 2024-25.

Note: It is important to note that sometimes the spend on a purchasing cards does not necessarily link to the individual cardholder. A single P Card may be used to pay for business expenses for instance group bookings such as travel or a hotel to reduce paperwork and administration.
