From 1 July 2025, the Department of Creative Industries, Tourism and Sport (CITS) replaces the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSC).
Intro
With the introduction of Phase 4, all existing gathering limits and the 100/300 rule have now been removed.
Physical distancing measures still apply. All attendees at council meetings are required to comply with the 2 square metres per person rule.
Ensure seating is appropriately arranged to give every person 2 square metres and if greater access for the public is needed, consider broadcasting the meeting to another room. This room must also allow for 2 square metres per person.
If your venue cannot accommodate all council members and necessary officers, you could consider a mixture of in-person and electronic attendance until further restrictions are eased.
