Whakataka te hau ki te uru
Whakataka te hau ki te tonga
Kia mākinakina ki uta
Kia mātaratara ki tai
E hī ake ana te atakura
He tio

Tīhei mauri ora!

Cease o
winds from the west
Cease o
winds from the south
Bring calm
breezes over the land
Bring calm
breezes over the sea
And let the
red-tipped dawn come
With a
touch of frost
A sharpened
air
And promise
of a glorious day

2 Apologies

3 Declaration
of Interest
Members are
reminded of the need to be vigilant to stand aside from decision making
When a
conflict arises between their role as a member and any private or other
external
interest
they might have.
The Auckland
Council Code of Conduct for Elected Members (the Code) requires elected
members to
fully acquaint themselves with, and strictly adhere to, the provisions of
Auckland Council’s Conflicts of Interest
Policy. The policy covers two classes of conflict of
interest:
i.
A financial conflict of interest, which is one where a decision or act
of the local board could reasonably give rise to an expectation of financial
gain or loss to an elected member.
ii.
A non-financial conflict interest, which does not have a direct personal
financial component. It may arise, for example, from a personal relationship,
or involvement with a non-profit organisation, or from conduct that indicates
prejudice or predetermination.
The Office
of the Auditor General has produced guidelines to help elected members
understand
the requirements of the Local Authority (Member’s
Interest) Act 1968. The
guidelines
discuss both types of conflicts in more detail and provide elected members with
practical
examples and advice around when they may (or may not) have a conflict of
interest.
Copies of
both the Auckland Council Code of Conduct for Elected Members and the Office
of the
Auditor General guidelines are available for inspection by members upon
request.
Any
questions relating to the Code or the guidelines may be directed to the Local
Area
Manager in the first instance.
