Delegations Register

In keeping with legislative requirements, Council makes decisions which direct and/or determine its activities and functions. Such decisions include the approval of works and
services to be undertaken, and the allocation of resources toward works and services. Section 5.44 of the Local Government Act 1995 allows the Chief Executive Officer to delegate, in writing, any of his powers or duties (other than the power to delegate) to another employee. The Act also allows for the Chief Executive Officer to impose conditions on any delegations if he desires.

The Shire’s Delegations Register contains details of all delegations to committees, Chief Executive Officer and employees made under the Act and other relevant legislation.

The register is reviewed annually in accordance with the Act.
