Aboriginal Advisory Committee review
Consultation has concluded
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents in the Armidale Regional Council area are being consulted on the future structure of the Council’s Aboriginal Advisory Committee.
The structure of the Aboriginal Advisory Committee is being reviewed to incorporate representation of communities in the former Guyra Shire Council area, following the merger of the Armidale Dumaresq Council and Guyra Shire Council.
We want to hear from all interested people to ensure the group best represents Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities throughout the shire.
Council received fantastic feedback during an initial round of community engagement between February and April this year. From that input, a new advisory community structure was recommended and endorsed by Council.
The community is now invited to provide feedback on that structure, to confirm it supports the recommendation and provide input on details of the committee.

A second round of community engagement began with three workshops last week, in Tingha, Guyra and Armidale.
Participants provided great feedback on a recommended structure of the revised Aboriginal Regional Advisory Committee and other community members are invited to provide their thoughts by Monday 15 October.
The recommended structure was based on community feedback during an initial round of engagement from February to April and was endorsed by Council.
