Councillor and Staff Interaction Policy

The Murrumbidgee Council Councillor and Staff Interaction Policy has been developed by the Office of Local Government (OLG) in consultation with Councils.

At its core, the policy has three main goals: 

  • to establish a framework by which Councillors can access the information they need to perform their civic functions, 
  • to promote positive and respectful interactions between Councillors and staff, and 
  • to advise where concerns can be directed if there is a breakdown in the relationship between Councillors and staff.
