Explanatory memorandum

Note: The following explanatory memorandum should be read in conjunction with the explanatory memorandum(s) appended to the:

This memorandum is not part of the determination, but is intended to indicate its general effect.

This determination is deemed to have come into force on 1 July 2020 and expires on the close of 30 June 2021.

In summary, the determination makes no changes to local government elected members’ remuneration, allowances, or fees in the year it covers, with the exception of a few councils that changed their committee structures recently. For those councils the council governance pool is unchanged, but has been distributed slightly differently.

The mandatory criteria that the Remuneration Authority must have regard to when making a determination are listed in clause 7 of Schedule 7 of the Local Government Act 2002. In addition, section 18A of the Remuneration Authority Act 1977 requires the Authority to take into account prevailing adverse economic conditions. This is an important criterion at this time.

COVID-19 has created a rapidly changing environment that is having an immediate and unprecedented impact on the New Zealand economy. Although the precise impact is difficult to measure at this early stage, the Treasury recently published scenarios showing the possible economic impacts of COVID-19 on New Zealand under different circumstances. It is likely that economic and labour market figures and statistics published for the March 2020 quarter will largely reflect conditions before New Zealand went into the COVID-19 Level 4 lockdown, so the Authority will not know the extent of the downturn until the figures for the June 2020 quarter are published. Beyond that time, there could be other impacts within the year covered by this determination.

Taking these circumstances into account, the Authority has decided to maintain the remuneration, allowances, and hearing fees of local government elected members at their 2019 levels until the expiry of this determination.

However, the recently enacted Remuneration Authority (COVID-19 Measures) Amendment Act 2020 enabled the Authority to make a temporary reduction of up to 20% in the remuneration of those local government members who earn above $100,000 per annum, as shown in this determination, for a defined period beginning on 9 July 2020 and ending on 6 January 2021 (see the Local Government Members (Temporary Reduction—COVID-19) Determination 2020).

Last year, the Remuneration Authority introduced 2 changes to the way in which local government remuneration is set. First, it adopted a set of revised and updated council size indices (one each for territorial authorities, unitary authorities, and regional councils), and, secondly, it decided to introduce a more locally responsive way of setting members’ remuneration, which saw the introduction of a governance remuneration pool for each council. It should be noted that the remuneration of mayors, regional council chairpersons, and community board and Auckland local board members is not included in the second change. For more information on these changes, refer to the explanatory memorandum appended to the Local Government Members (2019/20) Determination 2019.

Governance remuneration pool table

The table below sets out the local government governance remuneration pools for councillors that will apply on and after 1 July 2020. Note that the Authority has maintained the governance remuneration pools for councillors at the same levels as the previous Local Government Members (2019/20) Determination 2019.
