TERMS OF REFERENCE
The Terms of Reference set out the purpose, role and protocols of the Panel.
Panel members will also be expected to abide by the Code of Conduct for members of Auckland Council advisory panels.
Purpose
The purpose of the panels is to provide strategic advice to the Council on issues of significance to their communities and to advise on effective engagement by Council with those communities.
Outcomes
The Panel will provide advice through an agreed annual work programme, integrated wherever possible, with other panels and approved by the Regional Strategy and Policy Committee.
Annual work programme
The Council will advise the Panel of the areas of strategy, policy and plan development that are likely to require comment or advice from the Panel during the course of the year. The work programme should also provide scope for the Panel to respond to issues and concerns arising from its communities and to develop its own priorities.
As resources allow, budget is available for the Panel to support activities that clearly contribute to the agreed work programme but the Panel may not access external resources for activities or events, except with the agreement of Council
Submissions
Panel advice will contribute to Council decision-making, but panels will not make formal submissions on Council strategies, polices and plans, for example, the Long Term Plan.
In their advisory role to the Council, Panels may have input to submissions made by the Council to external organisations but do not make independent submissions, except as agreed with Council.
This does not prevent individual members being party to submissions outside their role as Panel members.
* The above information is a summary of the 2014 Terms of Reference document and is based on the Governing Body decisions of 19 December 2013

Presentation of OurAuckland digital, council's news and online website
File No.: CP2015/25379
Purpose
1. To brief Ethnic Peoples Advisory Panel on the recently launched OurAuckland digital news and events website.
Executive Summary
2. Communication and Engagement on 1 October 2015 launched an Our Auckland news and events website that is mobile-friendly and integrated with the council’s social media channels.
3. This allows the council to extend readership of Auckland news and events among Aucklanders who like to access news on the move or follow us via social channels. It will also allow us to publish content in real time – rather than being constrained by the long lead in for the monthly OurAuckland print publication which is now an A4 document to improve accessibility.
4. In terms of content development for the new digital platform, more stories are needed to in the areas of diversity, youth, older Aucklanders and Maori.
5. Our Auckland’s content team, led by Angela Jones, are appealing for news stories from anywhere across the council group – good news that can be shared and showcased to external audiences. Angela will present on the OurAuckland website and outline how to go about shaping stories and getting them published on the work / achievements of the panels and showing how the council is supporting Aucklanders of all walks of life.
That the Ethnic Peoples Advisory Panel: a) receive the presentation. |
