Representation Review appeals sent to Local Government Commission

11 January 2022

2022 Representation Review update

As part of the 2022 Representation Review process, Council received 12 appeals on the final decision for representation arrangements (more information about this decision is available HERE). These were sent to the Local Government Commission (LGC) on Tuesday 21 December 2021.

Council will now wait for LGC to assess the appeals and determine whether or not a hearing is required.

In the meantime, Council is pursuing a draft Local Bill to be presented to Parliament to achieve Council’s preferred representation model which does not conform to current legislated requirements (more information is available about this HERE).
