Divided we Fall: An Insider's Perspective on Local Government Amalgamations, by Dr. Ian Tiley

Recent Australian local government structural reform has manifested as council amalgamations and predominantly as imposed merger processes. This book examines council amalgamations across Australia over the past two decades and uncovers the case of council amalgamation in the NSW Clarence Valley Council (CVC) since 2004. The case of forced amalgamation of four general-purpose and two county councils could have been a recipe for chaos; instead this book describes the gains and the challenges. Writing from deep seated knowledge of local government this book details the net positive economic outcomes and financial benefits against measurable indicators and describes the impacts on local democracy. Based on detailed research, this long term local government 'insider' perspective will be of value to all those interested in driving change through local government reform.

A thorough investigation from a unique vantage point
By Colonsay
In 2004, six local government councils in the beautiful Clarence River valley in New South Wales, Australia, were forcibly amalgamated. The logic was that one larger council would be more economically efficient, more able to secure professional expertise, and more able to plan coherent, strategic policies for the whole valley.

For several months before the event, many letters to local newspapers voiced their strong views that local representation, and advocacy for local issues, would be lost.

On the day of the amalgamation, the papers fell silent and the valley watched and waited. (I was one of them).

What happened?

Dr Tiley's book presents the answer in a very comprehensive and scholarly investigation, almost 10 years after the event. He is well qualified to do so. As a serving councillor in the area, indeed Mayor, now turned academic, Dr Tiley presents a unique vantage point: the inside information understood within a scholarly framework.

With clear and engaging writing, Dr Tiley describes interesting (and quite contrasting) trends in local government amalgamations in a number of other countries in Chapter 2, before turning, in Chapters 3, 4, and 5, to the uniquely Australian context. Australia has single councils serving large metropolitan populations and many small councils serving very few. But some of those few are dispersed over such vast distances that their remoteness is quite unique in the developed world. The issue (and history) of amalgamation reflects the full spectrum of concerns arising from such diversity.

The story is told by interpreting many key reports and documents. This style accelerates in Chapter 6 where the book turns to, and remains focussed on, the case study: the new Clarence Valley Council.
We get a first-hand and first-rate account of the political intrigues and predictable parochialisms of the key players. We are also led to the practical realities: how an order to amalgamate six councils actually translates into a multitude of on-ground complex decisions surrounding the need to consolidate financial accounts, honour commitments not to retrench staff, choose employment awards, plan new IT requirements, absorb local environmental plans, rationalise Development Control Plans, co-ordinate economic development strategies and so on.

How did it all turn out?

I can't spoil the story, but I can heartily recommend the book and its thorough approach, to all who are interested in this important, but neglected academic field.

No Better Title: Divided we Fall.
By Geoffrey Love
A valuable documentation of the large number of politically corrupted attempts to streamline local government in Australia. Well referenced with good case studies.
