We’re seeking community feedback on our draft Councillor Gift and Hospitality Policy.
The Local Government Act 2020 (the Act) requires Councils to adopt and maintain a gift policy that applies to Councillors.
The policy must make provision for the maintenance of a gift register and ensure that it aligns with the public transparency principles contained in the Act.
The current policy has been reviewed to ensure it is up to date with best practice.
What can the community influence?
This policy is required under legislation, and must contain a procedure for a gift register, and align with public transparency principles.
Some elements contained within the document, particularly the wording, layout or clarity of terms are flexible, and any feedback received will be considered, responded to and implemented wherever possible.
Submissions
Submissions on the draft procedure could be made via email to Annabel Harding, Governance Coordinator, at info@indigoshire.vic.gov.auby 5pm on 13 June 2025.
