About the role and the nomination process
The Committee meets 4 times per year generally in the Adelaide CBD and travel expenses and reimbursements are at the discretion of the Minister. This position is not remunerated.

LGA nominations on Outside Bodies will, unless determined otherwise by the LGA Board of Directors, be currently serving council members or employees of a council or other local government entity. Only nominations submitted following a resolution of council will be considered.
