Not happy Jan - Our friends at Ag Surveys have touched a nerve here. The Shires and Councils survey has been well patronised with over 100 responses so far. Here are some of the findings:

72.22% said their council is not managed efficiently.

 

55.56% said their council is not transparent regarding budgeting and funds allocation.

 

69.45% think the local council does not actively support private economic growth.

 

Don't miss a thing. Join The Farmers Club.

 

72.73% say local councils should not be able to enter into confidential commercial agreements.

 

57.78% say minority groups have too much sway with councils.

 

86.20% say local councils need be transparent in the remuneration for their executives/management/staff/consultants.

 

62.07% say councils are not in safe hands.

 

We have kept the survey open. You can have a crack at it here.
