LOCAL GOVERNMENT ACT 1995 - SECT 8.29

8.29 .         Effect of suspension of council

        (1)         While a council is suspended, the powers and duties of the council or of any member cannot be performed by the council or member.

        (2)         The suspension of a council does not prevent the term of office of any member from continuing to run while the council is suspended.

        (3)         Despite Part 4, Divisions 3 and 4, an office of member that becomes vacant while a council is suspended is not to be filled for a term that begins before the suspension ceases to have effect.

        (4)         An order reinstating a suspended council is to fix a day for any poll needed for an election to fill any offices of member that are vacant.
