Governance and decision making

Good governance is about participatory, consensus oriented, accountable, transparent, responsive, effective and efficient, equitable and inclusive decision-making that follows the rule of law.
What does good governance mean to you? What’s working well in East Gippsland?
Are you satisfied with the way decisions are made? Do you think that Council briefings should be open to the public?

My email to Council about attempts to reduce the public’s right to participate in meetings Scroll down to the bottom of the site.
I wrote to all Councillors two years ago about some really concerning attempts to reduce public participation in Council meetings. Fortunately the Councillors acted and the proposal was removed. That means, although it’s not much, we can still ask questions at Council meetings and still speak at them.
