Local board feedback on the draft Future for Local Government report
Resolution number AE/2023/22
MOVED by Member R Smith, seconded by Member J Maskill:
That the Albert-Eden Local Board:
a)
recommend that the following areas are prioritised for focus and engagement
with the Review Panel and for Auckland Council’s submission:
i) Clarifying the scope of, and boundaries between, local and central
government roles and functions in a Tiriti-consistent, ecologically
responsible manner and applying the following core principles:
A)
subsidiarity, according to the proposed framework at p110, 2022
Draft report;
B)
recognising and supporting local government’s capacity to influence
the conditions for wellbeing, specifically noting that in Auckland,
Local Boards understand and are well connected to their
communities and this should be recognised when planning for
community and the shape of local government;
C)
te ao Māori values; and
D)
the need to clarify statutory responsibilities.
ii)
Strengthening local democracy and community-led decision-making,
including by local government:
Minutes
Page 7
Albert-Eden Local Board 23 February 2023
A)
developing innovative participatory and deliberative practices (p 10,
2022 Draft report);
B)
exploring, adapting and trialing new forms of participatory and
deliberative democracy;
C)
learning from other countries and organisations (p37, 2022 Draft
report);
D)
developing tools for a representative sample of the population,
selected by sortition, to respond to a particular question (for
example; citizens’ assembly; Watercare example); and
E) overall, whilst protecting the importance of the democratic election
process, becoming “more of an ‘enabler’ of democratic decision-
making, not the holder of it” (p41, 2022 Draft report) supporting Key
Shift 1.
iii)
Strengthening, by agreement, central and local government co-investment
in community wellbeing,
consistently with the United Nations’ Sustainable
Development Goals or the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, with
central government making the necessary funding provisions.
iv)
Strengthening local government’s role in achieving greater community
wellbeing outcomes as provider, networker and convenor with the
necessary central government support to address localised, place-based
needs priorities as determined by research-based needs analysis (in
response to question on p205 and pp37 and 120, 2022 Draft report).
v)
Finding ways to secure more equitable funding for local government (p37,
2022 Draft report), including, specifically: rating all central government
land given the pressure that the use of such land creates on
infrastructure.
vi)
Strengthening the central-local government relationship: Whilst the local
board has experience with engaging with central government agencies,
this has not always produced tangible outcomes, for example, trees have
been removed despite the local board’s requests on behalf of
communities, and a basic safety design principle has been overlooked
despite requests this be attended to; engaging is a necessary pre-
condition for success, but failing to act on clear messages with radio
silence instead of explaining reasons breeds distrust.
vii)
Enhancing representative democracy by:
A)
investigating single transferrable voting;
B)
note the Supreme Court decision that preventing 16 and 17-year olds
from voting is inconsistent with the Bill of Rights and recommends
investigating the feasibility of lowering the voting age for local
elections to 16-year olds;
C)
consideration of a four-year term in local government to ensure
planning and delivery can be done well throughout an electoral
cycle;
D)
recommend consideration be given to introducing compulsory
voting in local government elections (as recommended on p186,
2022 Draft report).
viii)
Central government enhancing its own decision-making by sharing the
knowledge, funding of, and mahi within communities historically left to
local government alone, examples include the Department of Internal
Affairs ‘welcoming Communities Programme'.
