Council Registers

The following registers are public registers related to elected members and staff.

Delegations

Delegations help us make our daily decisions in a timely and consistent manner. Under the Local Government Act 1995, the Council can delegate authority and powers to the CEO. The CEO can then delegate power or duties to employees where applicable.

The Council reviews the delegations register annually – this register shows who has been granted delegated authority or authorisation for certain activities.

Council Complaints & Minor Breaches

The Local Government Act 1995 requires a Complaint Register to be maintained. This register records all complaints that result in a finding under section 5.110(2)(a) where a minor breach has occurred.

The register of complaints is to include, for each recorded complaint:

  • Name of the council member about whom the complaint is made
  • Name of the person who makes the complaint
  • Description of the minor breach that the standards panel finds has occurred
  • Details of the action taken under section 5.110(6).

The CEO must publish an up-to-date version of the register of complaints on the local government’s official website.
