A Council CEO has special responsibilities for the conduct of others. This code of conduct describes the activities and standards expected from local government councillors and council employees from the point of view of the CEO of a local council. It is a public declaration directed at (a) the general public (so that they know what to expect from the CEO), (b) at the CEO (so that (s)he understands his/her role and function in his/her own conduct the conduct of others) and (c) at the councillors and council employees (so that they know the role of the CEO and what to expect from the CEO if they fail to comply). It also explains the special way that the employee code of conduct applies to the CEO. Because Council CEOs operate in a complex legal framework, it makes clear a broad spectrum of legislation that could impact on the conduct of a councillor, a council employee and the council CEO.
