Code of Meeting Practice

This Code of Meeting Practice is made under section 360 of the Local Government Act 1993 (the Act) and the Local Government (General) Regulation 2021 (the Regulation).

This code applies to all meetings of council and committees of council of which all the members are councillors (committees of council). Council committees whose members include persons other than councillors may adopt their own rules for meetings unless the council determines otherwise.

Councils must adopt a code of meeting practice that incorporates the mandatory provisions of the Model Meeting Code.

The Code of Meeting Practice policy can be viewed from the policies register.
