We seek your feedback on draft revised Terms of Reference for CRG
The Council Reference Group (CRG) is a consultative forum that plays an important role in informing the Tribunal about issues related to the rate peg and its methodology.
The current CRG Terms of Reference (ToR) was drafted in 2024, on the basis that the CRG would operate for at least 2 years and be reviewed following that period.
IPART considers that the input from the CRG has been valuable and proposes to continue the CRG on an ongoing basis.
To reflect this, IPART has prepared a draft revised ToR. We invite your feedback on the draft revised ToR, including on any other matters that you consider should be covered.
You can provide your feedback by completing a submission form, until 11:59pm Friday 6 March 2026.
IPART will consider all feedback before finalising the ToR for CRG.
Below are links to the:
CRG meetings for 2026
We will provide the details of the upcoming CRG meetings for 2026, once the revised Terms of Reference is finalised.
We will publish communiques summarising the CRG meetings when available.
Ratepayer workshop for 2026
We hold periodic ratepayer workshops where ratepayers and other stakeholders can provide their feedback and views on the rate peg methodology and for us to share any new developments.
We will get in touch with ratepayers and the community when the next ratepayer workshop is available.
To hear more about the Council Reference Group and/or how you can participate in a ratepayer workshop, please register your interest.
