Don't know myself who they would be except professionals in this field ... perhaps Travel Agents or summat ?

Perhaps a councillor will inform us who they were...please?

If 'independent bodies' are going round to each individual council, would it not be a better if councillors nationwide had the same limits on their allowances?

After all a bed in London, or a meal in Harrogate costs the same whether a councillor is from Hyndburn or Halifax.

None of this would be a political issue then, as councils run by all parties would not be involved in deciding to implement the independent body's recommendations.

Just a thought.
