Policy Register

North Burnett Regional Council has developed a Policy Framework consisting of 3 Policy Categories – Statutory, Governance and General.

Statutory Policies

Statutory Policy is a policy that must be approved by the CEO and adopted by Council resolution due to a statutory requirement to establish a policy direction and to inform decision-making on a specific topic or issue. Compliance with a Statutory Policy is mandatory.

Governance Policies

Governance Policy is a policy approved by the CEO and endorsed by Council that supports a statutory obligation and/or establishes a corporate direction and informs decision-making on a specific topic or issue, such as a Council governance matter or an economic, environmental, social and/or cultural topic or issue of interest to the community. Compliance with a Governance Policy is mandatory.
