Update from LGMS Board Meetings

Established by LGAQ, the LGMS mutual schemes remain committed to providing Members with comprehensive coverage, claims and risk management solutions they need to give them the confidence to navigate the evolving local government risk landscape.

LGMS has a robust governance framework which ensures that it operates effectively, remains accountable and is able to achieve its objectives.

Operations are conducted and controlled by the LGM Board of Management (LGM Liability and LGM Assets) and the LGW Management Committee (LGW Workcare) and are each governed by a Corporate Governance Charter. The Board and Management Committee are comprised of:

• Representatives of the LGAQ;
• Elected Members and Senior Management representatives of Queensland
• local government;
• Insurance industry specialists and local government legal experts;
• The Scheme Manager and other advisers participate as required.

The LGM Board of Management and LGW Management Committee (including subsidiary Finance and Claims Committees) meet at a minimum on a quarterly basis and engage in regular strategic planning meetings.

In the 1st Quarter of 2021, the LGM Board of Management and the LGW Management Committee for the mutual schemes considered a number of important matters with key highlights available here on the LGMS Member Centre including a video update from Ian Leckenby (Chair, LGM Board of Management).
