Over the coming week Queensland mayors and councillors will receive the LGAQ's discussion paper 'Beyond Belcarra' which looks at taking tougher measures than the Belcarra recommendations to further address genuine concerns of the public regarding political processes and public perceptions regarding the transparency and accountability of elected members.
CEO Greg Hallam spoke to Steve Austin last night about Belcarra, the CCC and Queensland councils' plans for moving Beyond Belcarra.
The Policy Executive will meet on 27 April to chart a path for the sector in moving beyond the Belcarra recommendations.
