Key Advantages
Local Policy Hub offers a multitude of advantages that empower local government professionals and organisations.
Professional Development and Capacity Building
The platform serves as a learning resource for council staff, supporting ongoing professional development, onboarding of new employees, and the cultivation of policy expertise within local government.
Scalability and Future Growth
The platform can be expanded over time to include additional content types (e.g. procedures, guidelines, strategies) and integrate with other sector-wide initiatives, increasing its long-term value.
Improved Consistency
Shared access to policies based on common legislation/interests will promote greater consistency in interpretation and application across Councils, supporting better alignment with state requirements.
Support for Smaller Councils
Councils with limited resources will benefit from access to high-quality policy content, helping to level the playing field and improve governance outcomes across the sector.
Enhanced Collaboration
The platform will foster a culture of collaboration and knowledge sharing among Councils, enabling the exchange of best practices and innovative approaches to policy development.
Accelerated Policy Development and Implementation
Access to a broad library of up-to-date policies enables councils to respond more quickly to emerging issues, legislative changes, or community needs, reducing the lag between policy conception and implementation.
Cost Saving
By reducing duplication and streamlining processes, Councils can achieve cost savings in staff time, legal review, and external consultancy fees.
Increased Transparency and Accountability
By making policy documents and templates widely accessible, the platform promotes transparency in council operations and decision-making. This openness helps build public trust and demonstrates a commitment to good governance.
