Policies

Policies, codes of practice and codes of conduct are fundamental components of a Council’s good governance framework. Councils use them to:

  • set directions;
  • guide decision making by the elected Council and administration; and
  • inform the public about how Council will normally act.

A Council’s public policies, codes of practice, and codes of conduct are all available for scrutiny here on Council’s website. Accordingly, a Council will be held to account in applying them.

Please contact Council on (08) 8584 8000 should you have any enquiries.
