Casual Vacancies

What is a casual vacancy?

If a councillor leaves their seat during the course of their term, a casual vacancy occurs.

This could be due to one of the following:

  • the resignation of a councillor
  • the death of a councillor
  • the disqualification (or ceasing to be qualified) of a councillor
  • a failure to take up office
