For release from Monday, 27 August 2007
The Victorian Electoral Commission (VEC) today released its Final Report on electoral representation for the Moyne Shire Council.
The VEC’s recommendation is that Moyne Shire Council consist of seven councillors elected from an unsubdivided municipality. The recommendation is the same as the preferred option in the VEC’s Preliminary Report of 7 July 2007.
In preparing its Final Report, the VEC considered a range of information, including submissions made in response to its Preliminary Report and statements made at a public hearing on 7 August 2007.
The VEC’s Final Report on the Moyne Shire Council has been forwarded for consideration to Mr Richard Wynne MP, Minister for Local Government.
The Final Report is available for inspection at the Council offices, or people can get their own copies from the VEC (tel. 13 18 32) or from the VEC’s website www.vec.vic.gov.au
