Lobbyist Registry Survey
The City of Burlington is seeking input from the public on the future of a City lobbyist registry. The lobbyist registry is currently a voluntary list of businesses, individuals or groups who discuss matters with Council outside of Committee or Council meetings. The registry provides insights and accountability into which public partners have met on topics that may be relevant or impact Council’s decision making.
The current registry was established as a trial in 2022. Data from this trial, along with your valued input, will help determine how to shape and continually improve the registry and accountability measures of Council over the next four years. A report to Council to decide on the continuation of the lobbyist registry is anticipated for early Spring 2023.
Your participation in this survey is voluntary and individual responses will be kept confidential. Non-identifiable summaries of responses may be developed and shared publicly.
