Members need to stand aside from decision-making when a conflict arises between their role as a Member of the Council and any private or other external interest they might have. This note is provided as a reminder to Members to review the matters on the agenda and assess and identify where they may have a pecuniary or other conflict of interest, or where there may be a perception of a conflict of interest.
If a Member feels they do have a conflict of interest, they should publicly declare that at the start of the meeting or of the relevant item of business and refrain from participating in the discussion or voting on that item. If a Member thinks they may have a conflict of interest, they can seek advice from the Chief Executive Officer or the Team Leader Democracy Support (preferably before the meeting).
It is noted that while members can seek advice the final decision as to whether a conflict exists rests with the member.

6.1 Adoption of the Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2022
File Number: A4104744
Author: Julia Lee, Senior Financial Accountant
Authoriser: Janice Smith, Group Manager - Corporate Services
Take Pūrongo / Purpose of the Report
To adopt the Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2022.
WhakarĀpopoto matua / Executive Summary
· The Office of the Auditor General replaced the auditor for Council on 19 August 2022, assigning the audit to Deloitte.
· The Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2022 has been prepared and has been audited by Deloitte Limited.
· The onsite audit was completed by 25 November 2022, but work continued offsite and verbal clearance was pending at the time of this agenda going to print.
· Deloitte have, like all other auditors, had resourcing issues and this has led to a delay in finalising the audit process.
· Council is therefore in breach of the requirements of the Local Government Act 2002, as amended by COVID-19 rules, as the Annual Report has not been adopted by 31 December 2022.
· The breach is technical only and will not result in a qualified opinion.
That Council: a) adopt the Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2022; b) agree that the Group Manager Corporate Services is authorised to make any grammatical changes that may be required.
|
1) TĀhuhu kŌrero / Background
The Local Government Act 2002 (LGA) requires Council to prepare an Annual Report within 4 months of the financial year end. Central Government approved an extension to that deadline to 31 December 2022 because of COVID-19, which impacted the recruitment of auditors available to complete audit work. As a result, we were appointed a new auditor, Deloitte Limited, by the Office of the Auditor General on 19 August 2022, after the audit had commenced with Audit New Zealand, our previous auditor. This has resulted in a lengthy audit as Deloitte familiarised themselves with our systems, chart of accounts and reports. Unfortunately, due to resourcing constraints, Deloitte were not able to complete the audit within the December 2022 timeframe and Council is now in breach of the requirements of the LGA.
This is a technical breach and does not affect the outcome of the audit or trigger a qualified opinion.
2) matapaki me NgĀ KŌwhiringa / Discussion and Options
The Annual Report has been audited but Deloitte Limited are yet to issue the audit opinion. For this reason, the final report will be issued under separate cover.
Take Tūtohunga / Reason for the recommendation
Council is required by the Local Government Act 2002 to adopt the Annual Report as soon as possible, as Council is in breach of the 31 December 2022 requirement.
3) PĀnga PŪtea me ngĀ wĀhanga tahua / Financial Implications and Budgetary Provision

6.2 Establishment of an "Appointment to Council Organisation Committee"
File Number: A3977804
Author: Aisha Huriwai, Team Leader Democracy Services
Authoriser: Jacine Warmington, Group Manager - Strategic Relationships
Take Pūrongo / Purpose of the Report
To establish an Appointments Committee for the sole purpose of managing the recruitment of Directors of Council Organisations (CO’s).
WhakarĀpopoto matua / Executive Summary
· Council has an adopted policy in relation to the Appointment and Remuneration of Directors of Council Organisations. The policy stipulates that soon after the elections, an appointments committee be established to ensure timely management of that process.
· The policy also stipulates the membership to be one external commercial adviser (or similar) and two Councillors with an interest in CO’s.
· This appointments committee would be in effect for the full triennium and convened as required to undertake the recruitment process for a new director.
· The committee will operate under the parameters of the policy, with support from officers.
· The appointments committee will make a final recommendation to Council on the most suitable candidate to be appointed as director.
That Council; 1) establish an “Appointment to Council Organisation Committee” in line with the Appointment and Remuneration of Directors of Council Organisations Policy (#2117). 2) make the following appointments to the Committee; i) Te Miromiro – Assurance Risk and Finance Committee Chairperson ii) Council representative #1 ________________________________ iii) Council representative #2 ________________________________ 3) appoint ____________________ as the Chair of the Appointment to Council Organisation Committee.
|
1) TĀhuhu kŌrero / Background
The Appointment and Remuneration of Directors of Council Organisations Policy (#2117) was adopted by Council in September 2021. The policy states the following in relation to the appointment of directors:
The Committee responsibilities are outlined within the policy. The Committee has no decision-making powers but will make a recommendation to Council for adoption.
2) matapaki me NgĀ KŌwhiringa / Discussion and Options
It is now timely to establish a committee in preparation for any unforeseen resignations or planned end of tenure of directors during the triennium. This is now possible with the recent appointment of the independent Chair of Te Miromiro-Assurance Risk and Finance Committee who fits the requirements of being an external advisor.
Option 1 – Establish the Appointments Committee (preferred option)
In this option, the appointments committee is established and prepared for any unforeseen resignations of current directors or planned end of tenure requirements. It allows the recruitment process to be commenced without the need to wait for the next Council meeting to establish the Committee. This option is recommended to ensure that the Committee have sufficient time to go through the process before the next appointment expiry in July 2023. A further 2 appointments end in February 2024.
Option 2 – Establish the Appointments Committee at a later date
In this option, the appointments committee would not be established until such a time as we received a resignation from a member of the Board of Directors of a CO or were aware of the end of tenure for existing directors. This is not the preferred option as it would unnecessarily delay the appointment process.
Take Tūtohunga / Reason for the recommendation
Establish the Appointments Committee in advance of any resignations from directors of Council Organisations.
3) PĀnga PŪtea me ngĀ wĀhanga tahua / Financial Implications and Budgetary Provision
Any costs arising from the appointment process will be met from existing budgets.

6.3 Appointment of Independent Hearings Commissioner
File Number: A4077714
Author: Rochelle Deane, Manager - Environmental Services
Authoriser: Janice Smith, Group Manager - Corporate Services
Take Pūrongo / Purpose of the Report
To appoint Mr Barry Mosley to the pool of independent commissioners under section 34A of the Resource Management Act 1991, (the ‘Act’).
WhakarĀpopoto matua / Executive Summary
· The Act provides that Council may delegate its functions, powers or duties to independent Commissioners appointed by Council.
· Council has a statutory requirement to maintain a pool of independent commissioners that meet the accreditation requirements and include a sufficient variety of knowledge and experience.
· Barry Mosley has extensive experience in resource planning and would assist the Resource Consent team to undertake Commissioner work as well as assist to ensure continuity of service and the efficient determination of resource consents in a timely manner.
That pursuant to section 34A of the Resource Management Act 1991, that Far North District Council appoint Barry Mosley to the Council’s list of approved Commissioners.
|
1) TĀhuhu kŌrero / Background
The Resource Management Act 1991 provides that Council may delegate its functions, powers or duties to independent commissioners appointed by Council.
The Act requires Council to engage independent commissioners under the following circumstances:
· Notified resource consents.
An applicant and/or submitter/s to a notified resource consent application may request that council appoint at least one independent commissioner to hear and decide on the application. This also applies to notified notices of requirement for a designation and heritage. If such a request is received, council must delegate its functions, powers, and duties to hear and decide the application to one or more independent commissioners.
· Objections to a decision of council officer on resource consent
An applicant who is objecting to a decision by a council officer has the ability to request that their objection be heard by an independent commissioner. If such a request is received, council must delegate its functions, powers, and duties to consider and decide on the objection to one or more independent commissioners.
Council may also choose to use independent commissioners for:
· making decisions on –
o proposed policy statements, proposed plans, variations, or plan changes (other than approval)
o resource consent applications and recommendations on notices of requirement
o notification or non-notification of resource consents
o servicing of an application
o plan changes or variations and on submissions to plan changes (other than declaring a plan change operative)
· reviewing resource consent conditions
Independent commissioner roles extend to:
· providing advice on technical or procedural matters to make decisions on particular applications.
· for perceived or actual conflicts of interest or perceptions of bias,
· where issues are complex or of a highly technical nature and there is a need for specialist expertise that is not available within council,
· where an application has substantive implications for council policy,
· assisting council when councillors are not available or following local body elections, and/or
· covering lengthy hearings.
Councils have the discretion to decide who they employ as independent commissioners provided, they meet the Act’s accreditation requirements, and they are not a member (including elected representatives) of council.
2) matapaki me NgĀ KŌwhiringa / Discussion and Options
Council is required to ensure that it has an appropriate pool of independent commissioners to meet its functions, powers and duties under the Resource Management Act 1991. It is recognised as good practice for council to use independent commissioners in the place of staff and elected representatives, particularly where:
· independent commissioners can help ensure continuity of service and the efficient determination of resource consents in a timely manner,
· staff and/or elected representative/s may be perceived to have an actual or alleged conflict of interest,
· Council is determining objections relating to council charges,
· matters are outside the technical knowledge or experience of staff and/or elected representative/s; such as legal matters, built heritage, previous consenting knowledge or Te Ao Māori and Te Tiriti o Waitangi issues,
· staff and/or an elected representative/s may have, or may be perceived to have, a closed mind on the proposal (such as when publicly stating opinions on the merits of a proposal in the media or at public meetings before it is heard),
· there may be a combined or joint hearing with a district or regional council and a neutral chairperson or adviser is considered desirable,
· Council Controlled Organisation Far North Holdings Ltd is the applicant or has an interest in the outcome of the matter being considered, and council may therefore be perceived to have an actual or alleged conflict of interest, and/or
· staff or contractors of council are the applicant or have an interest in the outcome of the matter being considered, and council may therefore be perceived to have an actual or alleged conflict of interest.
Barry Mosley has extensive experience in resource planning and has previously been on the approved FNDC list of Commissioners prior to joining Auckland Council in 2011.
Barry has a Master of Regional and Resource Planning (awarded with distinction in 1990 Otago University 1990) and is a certified Hearings Commissioner (Ministry for the Environment (MfE)).
He has an extensive work history in planning and policy having worked across several councils, up to General Manager level. This has included developing policy on a wide range of resource management issues, undertaking complex resource management assignments and Environment and High Court work.
Barry Mosley is currently Principal of a Consultancy established to provide professional Resource Management and Urban planning advice and services to individuals and organisations as well as Commissioner work. Barry has recently processed and reported on urban development proposals for the Far North District Council.
As a Planner and certified Hearings Commissioner Barry maintains his knowledge and understanding of Te Ao Māori and tangata whenua values in the current environment by participating in ongoing education via the NZPI. In particular this relates to the impact of Treaty Settlements and the context for the application of Iwi Management Plans and Cultural Impact Assessments.
Barry would be a valuable addition to the current pool of FNDC approved Commissioners.
As he is not on Council’s list of approved Commissioners, he will need to be appointed formally by Council pursuant to s34A of the RMA which provides for delegations to Commissioners.
Take Tūtohunga / Reason for the recommendation.
Barry Mosley is a very experienced Commissioner who is held in high regard by those organisations that use his services. It is, therefore, recommended that he be appointed to the Council’s list of approved Hearings Commissioners.
3) PĀnga PŪtea me ngĀ wĀhanga tahua / Financial Implications and Budgetary Provision
The RMA and LGA allow Far North District Council to recover all reasonable costs incurred in respect of the activity to which the charge relates. The costs of the Independent Hearing Commissioners are passed on to the applicant.
