The remaining institutions are the: - government of New Caledonia - provinces - customary senate - traditional councils and - economic, social and environmental council. Congress is primarily an assembly of elected representatives from various political parties, some of whom can form political groups (section 79 of the OA and 11 of the SO) within Congress. Congress has 54 members who bear the title of “Councillors of New Caledonia”. It is made up of part of the members of each provincial assembly, ie: 7 members from the Loyalty Island Province Assembly, out the 14 that make up the provincial assembly; 15 of the 22 members of the Northern Province Assembly; and 32 of the 40 representatives elected to the Southern Province Assembly. A single election determines the membership of both the provincial assemblies and Congress. Members of Congress are elected for 5 years. The 54 members of Congress are elected every 5 years in five-yearly provincial elections (OA section 62). Every year, Congress elects an executive committee from among its members, made up of the Speaker of Congress, Deputy Speakers, Secretaries and Quaestors.

The Voice of the Councillor: Final Report 3 The De Montfort University and Municipal Journal Councillor Commission Foreword from Clive Betts MP Councillors are vital to the democratic health of their local communities and to the country as a whole and they underpin our democratic system. Councillors oversee multi-million pound budgets and direct the development and delivery of the public services provided by complex organisations. The decisions they make and the policies they formulate and agree have a long-term and profound effect on the quality of life of individuals and of communities and councillors help to shape the long-term future of those communities. At the same time councillors will be active within their communities, working alongside them to solve local problems and provide help and support to local people. People expect a great deal from their councillors, and rightly so. The public want their councillors to ensure good public services and provide a decent area to live in; they want councillors to build strong and cohesive communities; the public want their councillors to operate to high standards of behaviour and to be accessible, visible, responsible and responsive to public demands.

  • Understanding Canadian Bicameralism: Past, Present and Future
    1 Understanding Canadian Bicameralism: Past, Present and Future Presented at the 2018 Annual Conference of the Canadian Political Science Association Gary William O’Brien, Ph.D. June, 2018 Not be cited until a final version is uploaded 2 Studies of the Senate of Canada’s institutional design as well as the proposals for its reform have often focused on the method of selection, distribution of seats and powers.1 Another methodology is the use of classification models of bicameral second chambers which also explore power and representation dimensions but in a broader constitutional and political context. Although such models have been employed to study Canada’s upper house in a comparative way,2 they have not been used extensively to understand the origins of the Senate’s underlying structure or to analyze reform proposals for their impact on its present multi-purposed roles. This paper proposes to give a brief description of the models which characterize pre- and post-Confederation second chambers. Given that many of the legal and procedural provisions concerning Canada’s current upper house can be traced back to the Constitutional Act, 1791 and the Act of Union, 1840, it will place Canadian bicameralism within its historical context. The Senate’s “architecture”, “essential characteristics” and “fundamental nature”, terms used in the 1980 and 2014 Supreme Court opinions but with no link to pre- Confederation antecedents, cannot be understood without references to Canadian parliamentary history. Finally, it will provide some observations on the nature of Canadian bicameralism and will conceptualize various reform proposals in terms of classification models.
