Anyone can speak up if they are concerned about the conduct of a public officer, and should ‘check 1, 2’ to make sure they report their concern with the right people. This is the message in a new video created by the Public Sector Commission for government sector staff and the community. The Reporting Minor Misconduct? – Let’s check 1, 2 video includes clear descriptions and examples of professional misconduct to help people understand where to best direct their particular concern about a public officer. https://www.wa.gov.au/organisation/public-sector-commission/minor-misconduct-public-officers The new video supports updated minor misconduct web content and reporting information, including the anonymous Safe2Say option, published in December last year. https://www.wa.gov.au/organisation/public-sector-commission/minor-misconduct-public-officers

The Shires of Wyalkatchem, Trayning and Nungarin have received funds through the WA Bicycle Network Grants Program to develop a business case for the development of a dual use trail across the three Shire. We are currently exploring the possibility of using the existing maintenance tracks along the unused tier 3 rail network that link each of the shires.
