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 comes into force on 1 July 2022 and expires at the close of 30 June 2023.
Councils and local boards
Since 2019, when setting remuneration for local government elected members, the Remuneration Authority (the Authority) has used a group of size indices that it has put together covering territorial, regional, and unitary authorities and Auckland local boards. The relevant workload and responsibilities of each council are assessed using a number of criteria, and each council is placed within the relevant index. The Authority decides the remuneration of mayors, regional council chairpersons, and Auckland local board members based on this data. The size index is also used to determine a governance remuneration pool for councillors on each council and the minimum allowable remuneration that must be paid to each councillor.
The governance remuneration pool provides the total amount to be fully allocated and paid in remuneration to the councillors. Each council is required to make proposals to the Authority on how its individual pool will be allocated according to that council’s priorities and circumstances. Roles to which differential remuneration can be attached, in addition to the minimum allowable remuneration, include internal roles such as deputy mayor, committee chair, or portfolio holder as well as roles representing the council on outside groups. Councils submit their proposals to the Authority for its approval and inclusion in the determination. This is not automatic, and the Authority is able to request further information or make changes to the recommendations it receives.
Because the triennial local government elections are scheduled for later this year, the Authority recently completed a full review of the above framework. All councils were regularly consulted throughout the review process. The Authority found that the current approach is working well and no changes have been made to the framework. In this case, the Authority was interested in the time allocated by elected members to their local government roles. We asked members to participate in a short survey to assess whether the time demands had increased since the last assessment. Unfortunately, the response rate was not sufficient to allow us to make a definitive judgement, although the responses we did receive tended to confirm that our previous assessment was still relatively robust.
The size indices were updated with the most recent publicly available demographic, statistical, and economic data, and the updated size indices will apply for the triennium following the local elections in October 2022.
Community boards
Determining community boards’ remuneration remains problematic because of the large variations in their number of members, the populations they represent, and their respective roles and powers. The Authority’s 2019 review of community board remuneration concluded that, because of those variations, a workable ranking of community boards or a robust and intuitively sensible size index could not be developed. Therefore, the fixing of individual councils’ community board members’ remuneration over the past 3 years was informed in part by the population of each community board and by their individual current remuneration settings.
The Authority has decided to continue with its existing practice for determining the remuneration of community board members for this determination and during the next triennium. The Authority has communicated its concerns about community boards to the Review into the Future for Local Government, to the Local Government Commission, and to Local Government New Zealand.
Elected members’ remuneration
Schedule 1 of this determination sets out the remuneration of elected members for the period beginning on 1 July 2022 and ending on the close of the day on which the official result of the 2022 election is declared for each individual council.
Schedule 2 of the determination sets out the remuneration for elected members that will come into force on and from the day after the date on which the official result of the 2022 local election of members for an individual council is declared.
At the end of this explanatory memorandum are the governance remuneration pools for each council that will apply on and from 1 July 2022 (table 1) and on and from the day after the date on which an individual council’s official result is declared following the 2022 local elections (table 2).
Allowances
This determination also makes changes to the level and conditions of some allowances.
The maximum purchase price (clause 9) that may be paid for an electric or a hybrid vehicle purchased by a local authority for its mayor or regional council chairperson has been increased to $68,500 (including goods and services tax and on-road costs). This new rate is based on an assessment of the current motor vehicle market rates and takes into account the vehicle being fit for purpose, the safety of the driver and passengers, and fairness to ratepayers. The Authority recommends that councils use the All of Government procurement process and the Clean Car Discount (rebate) scheme to optimise the value of their purchases.
The vehicle-kilometre allowance rates (clause 11) have been adjusted from those shown in the previous determination to reflect the current rates prescribed by the Inland Revenue Department on 27 May 2022 for businesses, self-employed people, and employees.
The vehicle-kilometre allowance has been aligned with the travel-time allowance to ensure that an elected member, when travelling from a place in which they permanently or temporarily reside that is outside their local authority boundary, may claim the vehicle-kilometre allowance only when travelling on local authority business once they enter the local authority’s boundary.
The travel-time allowance (clause 12) has been increased from $37.50 to $40 for each hour of eligible travel time after the first hour of time travelled in a day. This allowance was last increased in 2016.
The fee paid to a chairperson of a hearing (clause 15) has been increased from $100 to $116 per hour, and the fee paid to a member of a hearing has been increased from $80 per hour to $93 per hour. Hearing fees were last reviewed in 2011.
In their submissions, councils advised that the hearing times (clause 6) for formal meetings have become relatively shorter in comparison with the preparation work that councillors are required to undertake. Consequently, the Authority has removed the time constraint placed on preparing for hearings.
In making this determination for the remuneration of elected members of local authorities, local boards, and community boards listed in clause 6 of Schedule 7 of the Local Government Act 2002, the Authority had regard to the mandatory criteria listed in clause 7 of that schedule and the criteria listed in sections 18 and 18A of the Remuneration Authority Act 1977.
Governance remuneration pools: table 1
The table below sets out the local government governance remuneration pools for the councillors of each local authority, which will apply on and after 1 July 2022 until the close of the day on which the official result of the 2022 election in relation to an individual local council is declared. This period is covered by the current (2019/22) size indices.
