Explanatory memorandum

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

This determination amends the Local Government Members (2021/22) Determination 2021 (the principal determination).

Clause 4 amends clause 9 of the principal determination, which sets out the motor vehicle entitlements for mayors and regional council chairpersons. The amendment applies the recently introduced Government Clean Car Discount (the rebate) that local authorities may receive for eligible vehicles they provide to their mayors and chairpersons. The amendment enables the rebate that a local authority has received to be deducted from the purchase price of the eligible motor vehicle before calculating the deduction from the remuneration of the local authority’s mayor or chairperson for the full or partial private use of the eligible vehicle.

All amendments to Part 2 of the Schedule of the principal determination are made at the request of the councils concerned. This determination is deemed to have come into effect on 1 July 2021.

Issued under the authority of the Legislation Act 2019.

Date of notification in Gazette: 2 September 2021.
