- Disclosable Pecuniary Interests - Members are required to register not only their own interests under this heading but also those of their spouse or civil partner or of any person with whom they are living as husband and wife or as if they were civil partners and the Member is aware that the other person has the interest
- Other Pecuniary Interests - Members are only obliged to register their own interests under this heading and do not need to include the interests of spouses or civil partners or others
- Registerable Non- Pecuniary Interests - Members are only obliged to register their own interests under this heading and do not need to include the interests of spouses or civil partners or others
