2 Policy Framework 1. Introduction 1.1 As reflected in Creating our Future, the City of Adelaide Strategic Plan , Council s vision for the City is: A vibrant, populous and sustainable Capital City built upon Adelaide s heritage and lifestyle. 1.2 The Policy Framework supports the translation of Council s vision to deliver the outcomes sought for the City through guidance for decision making. 1.3 The Framework provides clarity on the roles of Council and the Administration. 1.4 The Policy Framework applies to the development of both Council and Administration policy. 2. Legislative Requirements 2.1 The setting and reviewing of policy is a primary responsibility of Council under Section 59 of the Local Government Act (1999) and Section 22 of the City of Adelaide Act (1998). It is the role of the Administration to support Council with the development, implementation and review of policy. 3. Strategic Context 3.1 Council s vision for the City is enacted through Creating our Future, the City of Adelaide Strategic Plan Central to Council s vision are six desired outcomes: Populous Capital City Unique Heritage, Park Lands and City Design Accessible and Connected Capital City Culturally Vibrant City Economically Prosperous City Environmentally Sustainable City 3.2 Delivering our Future, The Corporations Plan , outlines how the Administration, will assist Council in its policy governance role and to achieve its vision for the City. 3.3 In particular, the Administration aims to: Deliver for Council Deliver for the people we serve Deliver for our partners Deliver for our people Deliver for the Corporation 4. Policy Objectives 4.1 To assist Council in its delivery of robust and transparent governance in line with Council s policy role as outlined in section 59 of the Local Government Act (1999) and in Section 22 of the City of Adelaide Act (1998). 2
3 4.2 To facilitate the development, implementation and review of Council policy to support the delivery of Creating our Future, the City of Adelaide Strategic Plan To facilitate the development, implementation and review of Administration policy to support Delivering our Future, The Corporation s Plan To provide a framework for policy development that informs decision making processes across Council. 4.5 To utilise principles that contribute to good policy development and review. 4.6 To provide clarity on the many roles that Council assumes and performs. 5. Policy Principles 5.1 Policy principles support the development of consistent, transparent and robust policy and aim to inform the development of all Council and Administration policy. 5.2 Principles of policy and policy governance are: Principle 1: Policy informs decision making and contributes to achievement of the Outcomes sought from the Council s and the Corporation s Plans Policy is directly aligned to the achievement of an identified benefit or outcome, and informs decision making accordingly. It will reflect good governance practices and accord with legal, environmental, social and financial requirements. Principle 2: Policy is evidence based Policy development is informed by sound research and analysis, and an understanding of outcomes achieved by similar policy. Opportunities exist to test policy outcomes on a project or at a localised level prior to its adoption. Principle 3: Policy is developed in consultation with key stakeholders The contribution of key stakeholders in the policy initiation, development and review processes, broadens input, adds rigour and helps to achieve greater acceptance. Principle 4: The role of the Council and the Administration (Divisions and Business Units) is clearly articulated in policy The Council performs a variety of roles (e.g. leader, owner/custodian, regulator, information provider, advocate, facilitator/initiator, agent, part funder/funder and direct). Role definition provides transparency for external parties and the Council as to the varying (and multiple) roles. The role (or roles) of the Administration (Divisions and Business Units) in relation to an area or issue is clearly defined and articulated in policy documents and operating guidelines. Role definition assists in framing decision making and in identifying and resolving current or potential policy conflicts associated with the Council s and/or Administration s performance of multiple roles. 3
4 Principle 5: Decision-making is undertaken in line with policy, and exceptions are formally approved A core principle of sound policy governance is that decision making occurs in accordance with endorsed policy which in turn reflects endorsed strategic outcomes. Further, where exceptions are made, they are formally endorsed as such with a clear indication of whether the exception is for that matter only, or is to be ongoing and require an amendment to redress the policy. Principle 6: Policy is readily translated to Operating Guidelines Policy objectives fully address the subject matter and are written with clarity that enables their ready translation into operating guidelines and effective and efficient implementation. Administration can request of Council that a policy be revised or reviewed where its translation into operating guidelines is found to be difficult or inadequate. Council may initiate policy development and review at any time through a resolution of Council. Principle 7: Policy outcomes are measurable Measures are developed and supported which enable assessment of the efficacy of a policy and its contribution to the outcomes and benefits sought. Principle 8: Policy is readily accessible Policy is readily accessible to Council, the Administration and to the public. The accessibility of policy documents will assist with compliance and the consistency and transparency of decision making and community education of Council s policy position. Principle 9: Policy is reviewed periodically and/or in response to change triggers In order to ensure delivery of the outcomes sought, policy documents must be reviewed: on a periodic basis and/or in response to a trigger e.g. Council request, staff requirements, a change in legislation and/or external conditions, or advice from staff that a policy needs to be reviewed, or a request from a third party. 5.3 All Council and Administration policy must satisfy each of these principles. 6.
