Model Councillor Code of Conduct

Effective 26 October 2024, all councillors are required to observe the Model Councillor Code of Conduct which is prescribed in Schedule 1 of the Local Government (Governance and Integrity) Regulations 2020.

The new requirements fall out of the Local Government Amendment Act 2024 and the Local Government (Governance and Integrity) Amendment Regulations 2024 as part of the local government reforms into the Victorian Councillor Conduct Framework.

The code was affirmed and further committed to by Banyule Council at its meeting on the 9 December 2024, and replaces the previous Banyule City Council Councillor Code of Conduct.
