           Trade and other receivables
                 In the case of rate receivables, Council has the power (o sell the property to recover any defaulted amounts. In effect this
                 power protects the Council against credit risk in the case of defaults.
                 in other cases, Council assesses the credit risk before providing goods or services and applies normal business credit
                 protection procedures to minimise the risk.

                 By the nature of the Councils operations, there is a geographical concentration of risk in the Council's area.

                 Ageing of past due receivables and the amount of any impairment is disclosed in the following table:

            Liquidity risk
                 Liquidity risk is the risk that the Council will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial
                  liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.

                 Noosa Shire Council is exposed to liquidity risk through its normal course of business and through its borrowings
                 with QTC and other financial institutions.

                 The Council manages its exposure to liquidity risk by maintaining sufficient cash deposits and undrawn facilities, both short
                 and long term, to cater for unexpected volatifity in cash flows.

                 The following table sets out the liquidity risk in relation to financial liabilities held by the Council. It represents the
                 remaining contractual cashflows (principal and interest) of financial liabilities at the end of the reporting period,
                 excluding the impact of netting agreements:
