Hearing of Submissions Committee Meeting - Hobsons Bay City Council

The Hearing of Submissions Committee was established by Council on 18 November 2025.

The purpose of the Committee is to hear any person wishing to make a verbal submission in response to a public consultation process advertising the opportunity (whether statutory or otherwise). The Committee is advisory in nature and has no decision-making powers. This means the Committee (after hearing any person who has requested to address the Committee) may only make recommendations to Council, which then makes a determination.

Meetings of the Hearing of Submissions Committee are held on an ‘as needs’ basis.

Membership of the Hearing of Submissions Committee comprises all Councillors.
