Greater Wellington has 13 regional councillors who represent six constituencies throughout our region – and that means they represent you. Councillors are involved in setting policies, making regulatory decisions and reviewing council performance.

Like all councils, we’re a statutory body and councillors are elected in local body elections every three years.  Various Acts of Parliament, such as the Local Government Act 2002, outlining the activities a council can or may be involved with. Councillors then have the responsibility of deciding how those activities are carried out, always following Standing Orders and the Councillor Code of Conduct.
