    8   REGIONAL ARTS DEVELOPMENT FUND (RADF) - GRANT RECOMMENDATIONS
        2020-21
        In accordance with Chapter 5B of the Local Government Act 2009, Cr Wilkie provided the
        following declaration to the meeting of a declarable conflict of interest in this matter:
        I, Cr Wilkie inform the meeting that I have a declarable conflict of interest in this matter as grant
        applicant Tania Nash is a personal friend. As a result of my conflict of interest I will now leave the
        meeting room while the matter is considered and voted on.
        In accordance with Chapter 5B of the Local Government Act 2009, Cr Jurisevic provided the
        following declaration to the meeting of a declarable conflict of interest in this matter:
        I, Cr Jurisevic inform the meeting that I have a declarable conflict of interest in this matter as I
        have performed as an amateur in theatre productions in the region produced by Jally Productions
        who are a grant applicant. Although I have a declarable conflict of interest, I do not believe a
        reasonable person could have a perception of bias because I believe I do not stand to receive a
        personal benefit or loss in relation to this matter. Therefore, I will choose to remain in the meeting
        room. However, I will respect the decision of the meeting on whether I can remain and participate
        in the decision.
        Council Resolution
        Moved:       Cr Stewart
        Seconded: Cr Wegener
        That Council note the declarable conflict of interest by Cr Jurisevic and determine that it is in the
        public interest that Cr Jurisevic participates and votes on this matter because Council believes
        that he does not stand to receive a personal benefit or loss in relation to this matter and therefore
        a reasonable person would trust that the final decision is made in the public interest.
                                                                                      Carried unanimously.
        Cr Jurisevic did not vote on the above motion.

                                                                                           Page 11 of 16
