Delegates from across New South Wales gather in Wellington for the Local Government Administration conference. Mr Cann, Minister for Local Government, opens proceedings amid debate over country conferences, adult franchise, and Australian-made machinery preference.
The banquet for Hon. G Cann and visiting delegates drew about 600 people in Empire Hall on Tuesday night. Wellington guests praised local organizers led by W Lang, with remarks by the mayor and council, and the inclusion of Indigenous guests marking a forward step for the Local Government Association. The Novelty Jazz Orchestra supplied music, and speeches lauded Cann’s service and decentralisation aims, while plans to renovate Wallington District Hospital were hinted at. Delegates from across the state were thanked for attending and urged to continue supporting local governance.
The 43rd conference opens in Wellington with President Mr L Cote presiding.
