On 21 Dec 2007 the Mayor of Mosman sent a copy of the "NSW Local
Government Code of Meeting Practice" to Stephen GOULD with an attached
letter.

On Fri 04 Jan 2008 the KSAS-2088 Management Committee reviewed the letter
and the NSW Government Code of Meeting Practice

From the very first contact with Mosman Council meeting in Feb 2007 and
subsequent Council meetings attended by Parents involved with the "Kids 
Safe-at-Sport Network", Mosman Council appears to be in breach of the 
NSW Government Code of Meeting Practice

Neither the Councillors nor the Council staff attended any of the four
Child Protection seminars held in May, June and July 2007.

On Thu 05 Aug 2007 a letter explaining the 6 gaps identified in the 
Child Protection process was delivered to the Mayor.

On Tue 10 Aug 2007 4 members of the "Kids Safe-at-Sport Mosman [KSAS-2088]
attended their first Council meeting to ask questions.

Please refer to the Statutory Declaration re 10 Aug 2007 for a record
of their experiences at that Council meeting

Since that meeting these nine (9) Statutory Declarations detail 
how Mosman Council have breached a number of sections of the 
"NSW Local Government Code of Meeting Practice" including:

s16	What is the Role of Councillors (s232 NSW Local Government Act 1993)
s77	Who is entitled to attend Meetings (s10 NSW Local Government Act 1993)
s83	Public Addressing Meetings

On 29 Feb 2008 the Australian Rugby Union published its
extensive Child Protection Policy which clearly identified
the Legal responsibilities for Junior Sports Clubs to
provide the Criminal Record Checks on Sports Volunteers.

SHOROC Councils were informed of this Policy which applies
to all Sporting Codes on Tue 18 Mar 2008

From the research conducted, Councils' Insurance Policies require
them to ensure that the Sporting Clubs have conducted the
Criminal Record Checks [CRC] on their volunteers before the
Council hires out a grpound to any sporting club

On 19 Mar 2008 Computerworld published an article "Green IT
spend to outstrip Y2k".

"By 2010 all types of businesses will be investing in 
systems that support detailed and continuous information
collection"

"Government regulation - via Carbon Markets and Taxation - will
be matched by customer and trading partners demands for
detailed reporting"

This article exacerbated many of the concerns that IT costs
will become the major on-going costs for Council, Parents 
and Ratepayers (ref letter Mosman Council 09 Sep 2007

These concerns include

1	New floodlights proposed for many sporting fields

2	New Watering systems for sporting fields

3	carbon credits required for Sporting events

4	SHOROC Councils proposed new Tender System
