You are invited to comment on Willoughby City Council’s revised Draft Code of Meeting Practice no later than Wednesday 10 January 2024.
The revised Draft Code of Meeting Practice (the Code) provides details of how and when Council meetings are conducted. It applies to meetings of Council and Committees of the Council which all members are Councillors .
The Code covers all items relating to Council meeting procedure as well as the behaviours expected of Councillors during Council meetings.
The revised Draft code now provides two amendments to reflect Council’s desire for earlier publication of Council meeting agendas, to provide more time for reading and consideration by both Councillors and the community. The amendments focus on:
- Bringing forward the notice of council meetings and publication of council meeting agendas.
- Bringing forward the deadline for Councillors to submit Notices of Motion, to ensure they can be included in the published agenda.
Council adopted the revised Draft Code of Meeting Practice at its meeting held on the 11 December 2023 and a copy of the report and Council resolution is provided as guidance.
