Put the local back into council

Why

Two local bills purporting to support councils wishing to de-amalgamate have been tabled.

Labor's bill is problematic because it removes the funding clause, and takes initiating power away from local communities.

Dr Amanda Cohn's bill strengthens democracy.

We are calling on Labor to stick to its election promises.
