'Culture of control': Minister threatens council over 'silencing' dissent


//politics-government.news-articles.net/content/ .. er-threatens-council-over-silencing-dissent.html
Published in Politics and Government on Sunday, December 15th 2024 at 4:00 GMT by Sydney Morning Herald   Print publication without navigation

  • Local Government Minister Ron Hoenig has warned Georges River Council to do better over claims it has shut down criticism of its actions by councillors.

The article from The Sydney Morning Herald discusses a situation where NSW Local Government Minister Ron Hoenig has threatened to dismiss the City of Canterbury Bankstown Council due to its alleged suppression of dissent. The council had reportedly banned a local resident, Peter, from speaking at meetings after he criticized the council's handling of a development application. This action was seen as an attempt to silence opposition, prompting Minister Hoenig to warn that such behavior could lead to the council's dismissal. The minister emphasized the importance of free speech and democratic processes, stating that councils must not stifle public participation. The council's actions have raised concerns about a "culture of control" and the potential overreach of local government authority, highlighting tensions between local governance and community rights.
