SECTION 15. QUESTIONS WITH NOTICE

MOTION CARRIED

MOVED CLR LOONEY / CLR WELLINGS

42-11-11 resolved

That the Councillor’s Questions with Notice be received and noted.

15.1 CR LOONEY

1. With the new work health and safety legislation my concern is Menindee Waste Depot facilities. Can we please have it as a top priority listing.

It is not clear exactly what aspects of the operation of the Menindee Waste Depot facilities are being referred to in this question. Council has an existing obligation to provide all employees with a safe working environment, which will not change with the new legislation. Council has received no recent complaints in relation to the working conditions at this facility and management is of the view that the current working arrangements provide for a safe work environment. Unless there is some specific work health and safety issue or identified risk at the Menindee Waste Depot facility, there seems to be no reason for it to receive a higher priority than any other facility or working environment.

With the new legislation coming into effect from 1 January 2012, Council will need to review a range of its operations to ensure that all aspects of the legislation are complied with. Management is still working through the steps that will need to be undertaken to address the requirements of the new legislation. Actions needed to be taken in this area will be assigned a high priority, along with the existing high priority action items in relation to the implementation of the Promoting Better Practice review outcomes, as well as the Integrated Reporting and Planning project.

The development of the Community Strategic Plan is the highest priority action item for Council at the current time and significant effort is being directed towards this project. This limits the time available for staff to work on other projects. Elected members must be mindful that Council’s administration has an extremely high workload at the current time, a situation which is likely to continue until the end of 2012. Compliance activities relating to the new WHS legislation will need to be carefully planned to ensure that they do not conflict with other priorities.


21 | P a g e 1 5 / 1 1 / 1 1

2. Menindee Post Office needs to be send Shire Agendas. The minutes they receive are confusing. Are the other towns receiving Agendas?

A consistent approach to the distribution of Agendas and Minutes across all Shire towns will be adopted in the coming months. It must be noted that all Agendas and Minutes are available on Council’s website prior to and following Council meetings.

3. Has Summit Employment and Training approached Shire for any work proposals for Menindee.

No specific work proposals for Menindee have been received from Summit Employment and Training in recent months.

SECTION 16. URGENT BUSINESS

Councillor Sullivan requested that Council obtain a quote for the removal of the asbestos from the Knox & Downs site.

MOTION CARRIED

MOVED CLR SULLIVAN / CLR SAMMON

43-11-11 resolved

That the Council obtain a quote for the removal of asbestos from the Knox & Downs site.
