The Premier has asked IPART to undertake a review to identify burdens placed on Local Government in the form of planning, reporting and compliance obligations by the NSW Government, and to make recommendations for how these burdens can be reduced. The aim of the review is to improve the efficiency of local government in NSW and enhance the ability of councils to focus on delivering services to their communities.
We have released an Issues Paper which provides further information about the review and the issues on which we are seeking submissions from interested stakeholders.
