http://www.asu.asn.au/localgovt/constit-recog-localgovt Post the ASU national executive and local government industry
division meetings last week , we have now published an ASU web page in support
of the Local Government Constitutional Recognition Referendum .
This is an important referendum , with the outcome of
bringing greater community spend to local govt, more long term funding security
and the ability for local govt to do more for its communities .
The ASU web link is at http://www.asu.asn.au/localgovt/constit-recog-localgovt
- from this page you can access both
ASU and external links on this important issue for our industry, plus past
ASU news items and more – regular new
items will be placed on the web page as we move towards the referendum .. Please
feel free to re circulate and re use this web page , including linking it to
ASU Branch , web pages, were the branch works in Local Government .
The ASU says YES
to the referendum!
A
referendum for the recognition of local government in the Australian
Constitution is set to accompany this year's federal election. The ASU is
supporting the YES case for financial recognition because we understand how
local government works and its needs, so we know that recognition is good for
local government, the community it serves and therefore all Australians.
