The on-going Burnside Council saga

Burnside Council will face an independent probe into allegations of bullying, undue influence and defamation. Former auditor-general Ken MacPherson will investigate and report back to the South Australian Government by the end of October. The Government made preliminary enquiries into the council after its chief executive resigned last month over claims of an unsafe working environment. He is back in the job since then.

SA Local Government Minister Gail Gago says inquiry findings will be released publicly. She says the investigation is an important reminder to all councils.
