Folder Committees of Council

Councillors participate in various committees which were either created by Council for advisory purposes or are formed by a Provincial or private entity in which the Regional Municipality has a significant interest.

Councillors are appointed to committees every 2 years or in accordance with the committees' or organizations' by-laws and policies.

Some committees have a resident appointment to provide an alternate perspective on the committee or to represent the Regional Municipality and its interests. Here is a list of Councillors and resident members appointed to various Committees, Regional Committee Appointments as of pdf 2025(125 KB) .

Code of Conduct

Municipal politicians across Nova Scotia must follow a provincially mandated Code of Conduct, which outlines over 40 guidelines across 14 categories, including gifts, benefits, and confidentiality. Developed by a working group formed in January 2022, the policy was adopted by WHRM Council in December 2024. It requires municipalities to retain legal counsel to review complaints and conduct investigations. The policy defines appropriate and inappropriate conduct and outlines a process for investigating incidents and applying sanctions when necessary.
