DECLARATIONS OF
INTEREST:
Councillor Bennison declared a non-pecuniary conflict of
interest of a non significant nature in the following items:-
·
Waste Management as he has a long standing personal
relationship with some of the individuals involved in the program that could be
seen as a conflict however as he would not benefit from this in any way and the
recommendation is calling for a report only, he indicated he would participate
in any debate and vote on the item.
·
Careers Day Indigenous Students as his firm participates in this program and his wife was the
originator of this program two (2) years ago and as this is a volunteer project
that many local businesses participate in and neither he nor his wife or firm
benefit from participating in this program, he indicated he would
participate in any debate and vote on the item.
