Public Service Officer Award

LGANT has developed the Public Service Officer Award as a way to acknowledge those public sector employees from the NT and the Australian governments who have demonstrated a true partnership approach in working with councils, treat the local government sector with respect and go the extra mile in engaging with councils for the benefit of communities.

Nominations will be accepted from NT Councils for NT or Commonwealth public servants who have worked with councils in the previous 12 months.
