@poulton_linda @trentonjhoare @TammyTyrrell_ Burnie Council. If you Google quickly it will become quite clear 🤯

[Dr Amina Keygan @AKeygan]

@shannon_wells Location?!?
I will take a day trip to Devonport 😂

[Dr Amina Keygan @AKeygan]

@leedswoman I thought similarly.

[Sarah Lovell @SarahLovellMLC]

Thoughts are with everyone who will find today difficult

Please reach out for support if you need to, for any reason #politas

@Ryan_Posselt @ErskineKristen W/out knowing all background, I tend to agree w/this approach. Agendas come out early enough to allow for amendments to be made + new advice sought if needed. Making amendments on the fly when potential to significantly change advice is poor policy making imo

My heart has stopped and started to many times in the last ten minutes #Matildas

@LouiseElliotM @EndenNick @curtainsmith Updates for days 1-87 seem to be missing…

[Dr Amina Keygan @AKeygan]

@Ryan_Posselt @rykgoddard That’s my point. One of the key problems between councils having a behaviour policy that is unenforceable and demands higher levels of accountability/transparency/governance than the Act does. Rarely those whose behaviour would be improved by these policies sign up for them

[Dr Amina Keygan @AKeygan]

@Ryan_Posselt @rykgoddard So, in effect, voluntary.

[Dr Amina Keygan @AKeygan]

@Ryan_Posselt @rykgoddard Is the register voluntary?

[Dr Amina Keygan @AKeygan]

@jess__greene @curator_oxalis @Ryan_Posselt After all that “reform”, I find this gobsmacking. And tbh, had not considered it previously

[Dr Amina Keygan @AKeygan]

@jess__greene @curator_oxalis @Ryan_Posselt What about closed agenda documents? Security?

[Dr Amina Keygan @AKeygan]

@jess__greene @curator_oxalis @Ryan_Posselt In sum, what were arguments against?

[Dr Amina Keygan @AKeygan]

@curator_oxalis @Ryan_Posselt How?!

[Dr Amina Keygan @AKeygan]

@Ryan_Posselt @mmaloneTAS The Mayor or Councillors?

[Dr Amina Keygan @AKeygan]

@Ryan_Posselt @mmaloneTAS We had a similar motion come to our council.
It raises an important and interesting question- are “good” councillors measured by the number of events/meetings they attend?

That being said, the meetings of the Mayor are published monthly, presumably because that’s a FT role
