Past Consultations

Thank you for your participation in this survey and consultation. The Shire is currently considering the responses received and will endeavour to provide an update in the near future around what is happening in regard to the park. 

To accommodate a new requirement of the WA Local Government Act, every WA local government is now required to have an independent person sit on its Executive Officer (CEO) Selection Panel.  The Shire of Derby/West Kimberley therefore now invites interested people to sit on it’s CEO Selection Panel. The role of the Panel is to facilitate the recruitment and selection process for the Shire’s new CEO. The Panel will consist of several current councillors, and the appointed independent person and it will be in place until the CEO appointment is made.

In collaboration with the shires of Broome, Derby / West Kimberley, Halls Creek and Wyndham / East Kimberley, the Department of Transport is developing the Kimberley 2050 Cycling Strategy and we want to your feedback!

The Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries (DLGSCI) is currently undertaking a trial of a Banned Drinkers Register (BDR) across the Pilbara, Kimberley and Goldfields regions. The BDR targets harmful levels of alcohol use by controlling access to takeaway packaged alcohol. Individuals who are listed on the BDR unable to purchase takeaway liquor.

Each trial runs for 2 years, with an evaluation being undertaken after 12 months. The first interim evaluation of the Pilbara BDR trial was recently released. Following this evaluation the Government is proposing a number of changes be made to the system. The proposed changes focus around five themes;

1. Mandatory participation in the BDR by licensees (liquor outlets) in locations where the program is operating;
2. Enhancement and expansion of the BDR registration pathways;
3. Minimisation of secondary supply;
4. Expansion of the BDR program to other locations during the trial period; and
5. System and process enhancement.

These changes will be implemented across all trial sites.

DLGSCI is currently seeking feedback on the 18 proposed changes. Consultation is open to all community members and organisations. Feedback is being accepted until 2.30pm Thursday 27 October 2022.
