Baulkham Hills. Plug pulled on 'junkets'

The Hills Shire Council has pulled the plug on its Sister Cities program, not because such programs are not worthwhile but for the “junkets that got out of hand”, according to Mayor, Larry Bollitho. The Northern News reported that more than $100,000 in ratepayers’ dollars was wasted on controversial junkets by successive mayor and council staff. While the committee has been disbanded, council would maintain relationships with Cootamundra and Wexford, in Ireland.
