If someone lodges a complaint against a Council member or Committee member alleging they have breached a provision of Division 4 of the Code of Conduct for Council Members, Committee Members and Candidates, that complaint is required to be submitted to the Local Government Standards Panel. The Panel then determines whether the alleged breach occurred or not.

If the Panel finds that a breach did occur, the Town of Mosman Park is required to insert details of the complaint and breach into a Complaints Register.

The Local Government Act 1995 and Local Government Administration Regulations 1996 require local governments to publish an online Gift Register. The register must be updated within ten days of elected members, the CEO, employees and contractors disclosing the receipt of gifts or contributions to travel. Publishing the register online ensures transparency and accountability.

Under the Local Government Act 1995, elected members and the CEO must disclose all gifts they receive valued at $300 or over, unless they are excluded gifts under the Act. If the gift is one of two or more gifts made by one person to the elected member or CEO at any time during a year, the amount of the gift is the sum of the value of those two or more gifts.

Under the Local Government (Administration) Regulations 1996, a notifiable gift, in relation to a person who is a local government employee means —

(a)  a gift worth the threshold amount or more; or

(b)  a gift that is one of two or more gifts given to the employee by the same person within a period of one year that are in total worth the threshold amount or more.

The Town’s Code of Conduct requires employees to disclose all reportable gifts unless excluded under Clause 3.17(b) of the Code of Conduct.  Disclosures are to be entered on the Town’s Gift Register and published online.
