This week, with Chris Eddy away on a mystery international assignment, regular panellists Julie Reid and Tony Raunic are joined by Steve Cooper to dissect the week’s local government news.

The panel discuss the mooted local government conduct changes, VEC ward boundary reviews, emergency management, vandalism of public art, a contentious planning application and some Scottish push-back against central government interference.

The episode includes an interview with South Gippsland Shire CEO Kerryn Ellis about Kerryn’s experiences in responding to a major emergency, with some telling messages around leadership and culture.
