Consultation has concluded

At the Ordinary Council Meeting held on Wednesday 12 January 2022 the Council endorsed the draft Code of Meeting Practice for placing on public exhibition for a period of 28 days from Monday 17 January to Tuesday 15 February 2022.

This Model Code of Meeting Practice for Local Councils in NSW (the Model Meeting Code) is prescribed under section 360 of the Local Government Act 1993 (the Act) and the Local Government (General) Regulation 2021 (the Regulation). The Model Code of Meeting Practice provides a uniform set of meeting rules for councils across the State to help ensure more accessible, orderly, effective and efficient meetings.

Council is required to review its Code of Meeting Practice at least once within each Council term. With the recent changes to the Model Code of Meeting Practice for Local Councils in NSW (Model Meeting Code) published in October 2021, it is timely to adopt the new provisions.
