CEO Employment Committee Meetings

En Bloc
The term ‘en bloc’ is used to describe the practice of grouping multiple reports together and adopting the recommendations presented to a Council or Committee in a single resolution, rather than a separate resolution for each recommendation.
En Bloc voting can be used to provide efficiency in the meeting, where all members attending the meeting believe that a number of items, motions or recommendations can be determined without debate.
As part of the Shire’s efforts to ensure the efficiency and effectiveness, meetings will include the opportunity for matters to be considered by Council en bloc.
Matters not to be included in en bloc decisions are those which require:
- Absolute Majority;
- Matters to be determined behind closed doors;
- Declared Interests made in relation to the item; and
- Deputations or Statements made in relation to the item.
