Confidential advisor for political office holders

Wassenaar has an external confidential advisor on integrity and undesirable behavior for the political office holders of the municipality of Wassenaar. 

A council or committee member, Alderman or mayor may encounter a dilemma, (administrative) integrity issue, undesirable or transgressive behavior (think bullying, (sexual) harassment, aggression, violence or discrimination). It can be challenging to solve this yourself, but the political office holder can also discuss this with a confidential advisor. 

The external confidential advisor is independent and neutral. All questions, doubts or suspicions can be discussed in confidence. The confidant offers a listening ear, provides information, gives advice, assists in integrity investigations or complaint investigations, and refers on if necessary. The confidential advisor is independent.
