Section 5.127 of the Local Government Act 1995 requires Western Australian local governments to prepare a report for each financial year on the training completed by elected members in that financial year and to publish the report on the local government's website.
The reports detailed below highlight the mandatory training that is required to be undertaken by elected members under the Local Government Act 1995 as well as any training and development provided under the City's Elected Members' Professional Development Policy.
The Gifts Registers contain those disclosures of gifts that have been made by Elected Members, the Chief Executive Officer and Employees in their official capacity.
Elected Members and the CEO are required to disclose gifts which are valued over $300 or are two or more gifts with a cumulative value over $300 (where the gifts are received from the same donor in a 12 month period) within 10 days of receipt. [5.87A & 5.87B Local Government Act 1995]
Employees are required to disclose gifts that are valued between $50 and $300 or are two or more gifts with a cumulative value between $50 and $300 (where the gifts are received from the same donor in a 6 month period) within 10 days of receipt. Gifts over the value of $300 are prohibited.
The Act and Regulations require the Chief Executive Officer to publish an up to date version of the Gifts Registers on the City’s website after a disclosure is made. To protect the privacy of individuals, the register published on the website does not include the address disclosed by an individual donor and will instead include the town or suburb mentioned in the address.
