Assessment of Development Applications Involving Conflict of Interest

The Assessment of Development Applications Involving Conflict of Interest Policy was adopted by Council on 14 December 2022.

The objectives of this policy are to:

• ensure that development assessment recommendations are properly made, and that all parties are dealt with fairly;
• avoid any occasion for suspicion of improper conduct in the exercise of development assessment functions; and
• ensure that no action, statement or communication to any party conveys any suggestion of willingness to improperly provide concessions or preferential or unduly unfavourable treatment.
