Council Rejects Ministerial Plan To Narrow Advisory Council
The ACT Advisory Council rejected a proposal by the Minister for the Interior to amend its terms of reference. The change would limit council advice to the government and administration of the Territory, rather than any matter affecting the Territory. Members argued the ordinance should allow broader internal workings and not require ministerial approval for changes in procedure. The department’s representative warned some issues could be excluded, while others pressed the need for autonomy and warned against a restrictive move.
