Expressions of Interest for Panel of Conduct Reviewers

The newly elected Council will be appointing a Panel to undertake investigations

8/08/2011 - 19/08/2011

In September 2011 the newly elected Council will be appointing a Panel of suitably qualified and experienced persons to act as Conduct Reviewers to undertake investigations and to report to Council the findings and recommendations in relation to complaints alleging breaches of Council’s Codes of Conduct.

Conduct Reviewers must be independent of Council, be of high standing in the community and be familiar with the requirements of natural justice.

Council’s Codes of Conduct and Policy for Code of Conduct Complaint Handling are available on the website policy pages.

As the need arises, Council will either convene a Conduct Review Committee, or appoint a Sole Conduct Reviewer from the Panel of Conduct Reviewers on a fee for service basis.

Written expressions of interest from persons wishing to be appointed to Council’s Panel of Conduct Reviewers, including relevant qualifications and experience and a proposed fee schedule are invited to be submitted to the General Manager, Locked Bag 8821, Wollongong DC, 2500, or by email to pweber@wollongong.nsw.gov.au

Closing date for expressions of interest is 5pm on Friday 19 August 2011.

Enquiries may be made to Peter Weber on (02) 4227 7035.

In accordance with the Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009, your submission including any personal information such as your name and address, will be made available for public inspection and may be exhibited on Council’s website.

Any such request will be dealt with in accordance with the Privacy and Personal Information Protection Act 1998.

You may also make an anonymous submission however if you choose to do so Council will be unable to contact you any further as to the outcome of your submission.
