Governance

We are committed to transparency, accountability and good governance

What is Governance?

Governance is the system by which an organisation is held accountable. In local government, governance is the ways staff members are accountable to the elected council. It also involves how the elected members and staff are accountable to the community.

Governance Frameworks

The Torres Strait Island Regional Council is committed to upholding the principles of good governance, ensuring transparency, accountability, and integrity in all aspects of our operations. This section provides access to key resources and information that support our commitment to serving the community effectively and responsibly.

View our policies, local laws, and guidelines that shape the way we operate. Learn about your rights under the Right to Information Act, view our Publication Scheme, and understand how we protect your privacy. Here, you can also find guidance on how to submit complaints and feedback to help us continually improve.

By following these governance frameworks, we aim to build trust with the community, foster sustainable growth, and maintain a high standard of service for all communities.
