DEMOCRATIC LOCAL GOVERNMENT ELECTION PROCESSES: THE CITY OF SYDNEY ELECTIONS

AMENDMENT ACT 2014

Resolution 6.2
1. The NSWCCL calls on the NSW Government to ensure that no elector should have more than one vote in any election for the Lord Mayor of the City of Sydney or the City of Sydney Council or in any election for any NSW local council.
2. The NSWCLL records its strong opposition to the City of Sydney Elections Amendment Act 2014 passed in September 2014 which arbitrarily breaches this core democratic principle and calls on the Parliament of NSW to repeal this repugnant law.


Moved: Jo Murphy/Pauline Wright: That the resolution 6.2 be adopted. Carried.
