Manage episode 342794565 series 2890771
On this episode of the Local Government News Roundup - October Series, the topic is councillor remuneration - and whether the level of remuneration acts as a barrier for improving the diversity of representation at the local level.
Chris Eddy speaks with Tanya Jakimow, an Associate Professor at the Australian National University who has led a team of researchers looking at how NSW councillors feel about the adequacy of remuneration for the effort that the role requires.
