Australian Local Government Association
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- In structure, ALGA is a federation of state and territory local government associations. Since 2001, membership has included the Government of the Australian Capital Territory (uniquely in Australia, the ACT Government combines both state and local government functions).
- Key activities include representation of local government on national bodies and ministerial councils, providing submissions to government and parliamentary inquiries, raising the profile and concerns of local government at the national level and providing forums for local government to guide the development of national local government policies.
- As one of Australia's three spheres of government, local government is represented by ALGA on the Council of Australian Governments (COAG).
