Expression of Interest Independent Chair & Members Demerger Transition Disputes Resolution Panel

Cootamundra-Gundagai Regional Council (CGRC) was created in May 2016 through the merger of Cootamundra and Gundagai Shire Councils.

The Minister for Local Government has approved the demerger of CGRC subject to Council undertaking all planning for, and bearing all costs of, the demerger. It is currently planned for the new Councils to begin on 1 July 2027.

The communities and all Councillors strongly support the demerger. Nevertheless, it is possible that a dispute may arise as Council develops its plans. Council has therefore resolved to establish a Demerger Transition Dispute Resolution Panel (DTDRP). Council has also resolved to accept the findings of the DTDRP.

Expressions of Interest are invited from suitably experienced individuals for the appointment to the position of Chair and members of the DTDRP.

Council seeks the services of suitably qualified persons to take on these unique roles to provide independent resolution of any matter referred to the panel.

Suitably qualified individuals are invited to submit an Expression of Interest by providing a letter outlining their qualifications and relevant experience together with a current résumé.

For further details, please go to Council’s website at the following:Demerger News – Cootamundra Gundagai Regional Council or contact Peter Bascomb, Demerger Transition Manager on 0418 690 030 .

Applications, addressed to the Demerger Transition Manager, should be submitted  by 11.59 pm on Tuesday 7 April 2026 by post to Cootamundra-Gundagai Regional Council, PO Box 420, Cootamundra NSW 2590, delivered to Council’s offices at Cootamundra or Gundagai or by email to mail@cgrc.nsw.gov.au
