Last month, the State government confirmed Local government elections will go ahead as scheduled, for Saturday 24 October 2020. In this podcast episode of Public Sector Perspectives, we are fortunate to gain an insight to the election preparations already well underway. Warwick Gately AM, Victorian Electoral Commissioner, discusses how the VEC is planning to deliver these state-wide council elections entirely via postal ballot. Warwick also shares his own adaptive leadership approach during this pandemic and reassures us that even during these very difficult circumstances, “we can have absolute confidence in the way public administration is conducted”.
