6   LIFEGUARD SERVICES – REQUEST FOR QUOTATION ASSESSMENT (T000075)
    In accordance with Chapter 5B of the Local Government Act 2009, Cr Lorentson provided the following
    declaration to the meeting of a declarable conflict of interest in this matter:
    I, Cr Lorentson, inform the meeting that I have a declarable conflict of interest in this matter as my
    daughter Giorgia Lorentson and son Ben Lorentson are employed by Surf Life Saving Queensland
    (SLSQ) as casual lifeguards. It could be viewed that I have a have a conflict of interest, however I do
    not believe a reasonable person could have a perception of bias as my daughter and son’s employment
    is of a casual nature and not exclusively bound to SLSQ. Therefore, there is no benefit or loss specific
    to my daughter and son, from the outcome of this application. 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.
