Governance of Meetings

The Local Government Act 1993 (Act) determines the general rules of Council Meetings. It specifies the role of the Mayor, Councillors and General Manager and includes requirements such as: 

• the public access to meetings 
• the number of meetings that must be held during the year
• the minimum number of Councillors that must be present to hold a meeting (quorum)

Council has also adopted a Code of Meeting Practice(PDF, 282KB). The code determines the rules that are specific to Griffith City Council's meetings. It includes procedures for the general conduct of speeches and matters such as motions or amendments. The code complies with the Local Government Regulation 2021.
