If nobody is being paid then who is responsible should a legal matter arise ?

...and where did all the money go if there are no wages to pay ?

The cynical use of 'Volunteers' by some councillors, who pass it off as a service to the community is tantamount to employment abuse...... the lure of training and qualifications is nothing more than an excuse for cost nothing 'workers'............ it's funny that those self same councillors don't do "owt for nowt"...... there is always something in it for them.
