Council will acknowledge receipt of submissions to the Youth Issues and Options Paper. Submissions will be referred to Council staff for comment before being considered by Council prior to the finalisation of the Youth Issues and Options Paper.

Following the adoption of the Youth Issues and Options Paper, Council will respond to submission writers to advise the outcome of each submission.

We are seeking feedback on the options presented in the paper against each of the 12 themes. You may provide feedback only on the options that you are specifically interested in – or all of them. 

You may wish to simply prioritise the options presented in the paper, or provide learned commentary and expand on them. 

You may also use your industry knowledge to suggest other options for each theme. Keep in mind, that council can only act on suggestions where they have the jurisdiction and resources to do so.
