At the Ordinary Council Meeting 22 July 2025, Council resolved to place on exhibition the Code of Conduct. The policy is available to the right.


About the policy

Council’s Code of Conduct is the centrepiece of our governance framework. It is the foundation for ensuring the integrity of our organisation and building a strong ethical culture. Our Code of Conduct is based on the Office of Local Government Model Code of Conduct for local councils in NSW and includes provisions relevant to this Council.

Our Code of Conduct Framework includes the Code of Conduct, the Procedures for the Administration of the Code and a number of other policies and procedures which facilitate the administration of the Code.

This version replaces all former Codes of Conduct adopted by Council.

You are invited to provide feedback on the Code of Conduct.

You may contact Council by email council@strathfield.nsw.gov.au or mail Strathfield Council. PO Box 120, Strathfield NSW 2135. Please clearly mark your submission Code of Conduct.

The exhibition period will conclude on Thursday, 11 September 2025.

What happens next?

The feedback received will be incorporated into the final policy which will be considered by Council for adoption. If there are no submissions Council will consider the policy adopted.
