Greens back council sacking, propose 2018 election

2017-08-23

Greens local government spokesperson Samantha Dunn says the Greens will support the sacking of Central Goldfields Council and push for a 2018 election to appoint new councillors.

"Consistent with the previous times that state governments have sacked councils, The Greens are voting for an early return to democracy," Samantha Dunn said.

"Administrators can clean up administrative messes, but only elected councillors can represent the people," she said.
