Governance structure and delegations

For the 2022–25 triennium, Council approved its current Governance structure and delegations 2022–25[PDF 961 KB] on 24 November 2022 outlining all committees, subcommittees and community boards and their delegations.  This also outlines the appointments of elected members to a range of joint committees and external organisations.

Local governance statement

The Local Governance Statement[PDF 3.15 MB] is published by a local authority within six months of the local elections (that is, by 8 April 2023). The statement is a collection of information about the processes through which the Council engages with its community, how the Council makes decisions, and how the community can influence those decisions. 


Wellington regional triennial agreement

The Wellington Regional Triennial Agreement[PDF 215 KB] is drafted to meet the requirements of Section 15 of the Local Government Act 2002.

The Local Government Act 2002 is intended to provide the necessary flexibility for Councils to work cooperatively and collaboratively together and with other public bodies to advance community goals and to improve community wellbeing. 

The scope of the agreement includes the current cooperative and collaborative projects already in place in the Wellington region and work being undertaken to establish structures and protocols associated with specific issues, and aims to build on these.
