TERMS OF REFERENCE
(Excerpt – full terms of reference available as a
separate document)
The terms of reference set out
the purpose, role and protocols of the Panel.
Panel members abide by the Code
of Conduct for members of Auckland Council advisory
panels.
Purpose
As one of council’s
engagement mechanisms with diverse communities, the demographic
advisory panels provide advice
to the governing body and council staff within the remit of the
Auckland Plan on the following
areas:
·
Auckland Council’s regional
policies, plans and strategies
·
regional and strategic matters
including those that Council-Controlled Organisations deal
·
with any matter of particular
interest or concern to diverse communities.
Outcomes
The panel’s advice will
contribute to improving the outcomes of diverse communities and
social cohesion as set out in
the Auckland Plan. The panel will advise through their agreed
strategic agenda and detailed
work programme.
Strategic agenda and work
programme
The panel must develop a work
programme and set a strategic agenda for the term. The
agendas should be focused and
integrated across the panels for collaborative input into
shared agendas, particularly on
the Auckland Plan, the Long-term Plan and annual plans.
The panel should advise on
council’s organisational strategies relevant to diverse
communities.
The governing body and council
staff should work with the panel for the development of their
strategic agendas and work
programme. An appropriate committee will approve the panel’s
work programme and any
subsequent major changes to it.
Submissions
The panel must not make formal
submissions to Auckland Council on council strategies,
policies and plans, for example,
the annual plan.
In its advisory role to the
council, the panel may have input to submissions made by the
council to external
organisations but do not make independent submissions, except as
agreed with the council.
This does not prevent individual
members being party to submissions outside their role as
panel members.
Review
The form and functioning of the
panels may be reviewed prior to or after, the end of the
panel’s term in September 2019.

Youth Empowerment team update
File No.: CP2018/04464
Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report
1. To
update the Youth Advisory Panel on the work of Auckland Council’s Youth
Empowerment team.
Whakarāpopototanga matua / Executive summary
2. An
update on the Youth Empowerment team’s work programme will be provided.
This will include an opportunity to discuss how the Youth Advisory Panel can
support the work of the Youth Empowerment team, and suggest ways of improving
council’s connectivity with youth, leading towards a youth strategy.
3. The
Youth Empowerment team is comprised of staff from Youth Connections and
Community Action on Youth and Drugs (CAYAD).
4. Youth
Connections is a council initiative supported by the Tindall Foundation, local
boards, and other philanthropic funding. Youth Connections is dedicated to
improving youth employment, specifically for those furthest from the job
market. Around 10 per cent of Aucklanders aged between 16 and 24 are not in
employment, education or training (NEET). Youth Connections focuses on
this core group. The Youth Connections programme is currently being evaluated
to ensure that the best impact is being had.
5. JobFest
youth employment event is one of Youth Connections’ key initiatives. This
event attracts approximately 2000 young people and 70 employers looking to
recruit youth.
6. CAYAD
is a national programme funded by the Ministry of Health to reduce the harm
young people experience from alcohol and other drugs. CAYAD enables
communities, organisations and young people to collaborate and create lasting
changes in their environment, that will promote wellbeing and reduce the risk
of harm.
7. This
update also provides the Youth Empowerment team with a chance to hear from the
Youth Advisory Panel on issues they feel are top priorities for youth both now
and in the future, and where council can best look to improve those areas.

the update from the Youth Empowerment team.
