7.2.4                 Review and Update of Instruments of Delegation and Sub-Delegation and Instruments of Appointment and Authorisation

Attachment 4    Guidelines - Delegations - May 2013

§                     

cropped logo2

Guidelines - Delegations to Members of Council Staff

 

 

 

1.            Name

These guidelines may be referred to as the Buloke Shire Council Staff Delegation Guidelines.

2.            Application

These guidelines have been adopted by the Buloke Shire Council (Council) for the guidance of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and any member of staff to whom powers, duties and functions have been delegated under the Local Government Act 1989 or any other Act.

All delegations must be read in conjunction with this document and any other policies and guidelines that may be adopted by the Council from time to time.

3.            Record Keeping

Delegates will keep appropriate records of all actions taken under delegation.  The level of detail in record keeping will be in keeping with the nature of the delegation and any associated risks to the Council.

For example, the routine issue of a permit would be recorded in a permits register, detailing relevant issues.

In the event of more complex matters, delegates need to record the sort of information that would otherwise be available to the Council if the delegation did not exist.

4.            Reporting Back

This guideline has been developed to support the concept of delegation as a means of ensuring that the functions of Council are conducted in an efficient and timely manner.

Reporting back of delegations exercised is essential to ensure that adequate information regarding those actions is available to other staff, managers and the council.

Such reporting back will be by:

(a)          Presentation of reports to Council within the time specified in the table; or

(b)          Preparation of a memorandum to the CEO, or relevant general manager or managers within the prescribed time; or

(c)          Production of a register that will be circulated or available for inspection at any time.

The following table specifies the reporting back requirements that will apply.

The table specifies the minimum level up to which reporting back will take place.  This means that, for example, a requirement to report back to Council also denotes the requirement to provide that information to the CEO and to appropriate Manager(s).

The Table is to be read in conjunction with the attached Schedule relating to contract payments.
