It covers all aspects of a clerk's appointment and duties, from the constitutional role of local councils, through the terms of appointment of clerks to their day-to-day responsibilities. Practical advice and guidance is given on such matters as preparing for meetings, supervision of staff (if any ), finances and, most importantly, relationships with councillors. and there is a section on the legal status of local councils.

Other important changes include new Accounts and Audit Regulations made in 2003 and, also in 2003, the promulgation of the Quality Parish Council Scheme in England.
