Sandra Hazlehurst: Hastings Mayor on the youth council being given the ability to vote at a committee level

  • Summary

  • The Hastings youth council has made a successful bid to get voting rights.

    Hastings District Council has narrowly voted in support of giving unelected youth councillors the ability to vote on council issues alongside other councillors at a committee level.

    Their mayor thinks giving youth councillors voting rights will bolster their future opportunities.

    Mayor Sandra Hazlehurst told Kerre Woodham this was thought through very carefully.

    She says it'll encourage young people into local government, which isn't easy, because people definitely don't do it for the money.
