We Do the Right Thing - Kia Tika

In this role you’ll have the opportunity to help to shape Fire and Emergency’s support for communities by enabling us to better understand what matters - now and in the future.
LACs provide independent advice to the Fire and Emergency Board on what communities’ value, their needs and the risks they face.
Members are appointed by the Fire and Emergency Board for up to a period of three years and may be reappointed when their term expires for up to a further three years. Members are reimbursed fees and expenses via the Cabinet Fees Framework.
Local Advisory Committees meet four times each year.
**Ko tāu nā i tēnei tūranga - What you’ll bring to the role**:
- Strong connections with your community.
