  • Local Government Area (abbreviated LGA) is a term used in Australia (and especially by the Australian Bureau of Statistics) to refer to areas controlled by each individual Local Government. There is some confusion as to the status of Local Government in Australia. It is not mentioned in the Commonwealth Constitution, nor in most State Constitutional Law. State Governments are responsible for the legislation creating it, and ultimately for supervision. Funding is sometimes provided by State Governments, sometimes by the Federal Government. However, in recent years State governments have increasingly been devolving powers onto LGAs. For example, in Queensland LGAs have been granted the power to independently enact their own (local) legislation (referred to as "Local Laws"), in contrast to the previous system of by-laws. The generic names of Local Governments vary from state to state; examples include Borough, City, District, Municipality, Region, Rural City, Shire and Town. Many local government areas in New South Wales and some in South Australia no longer possess legal status such as Shire or Municipality, but are simply known as "Areas", and their councils simply "Councils", e.g. Burwood Council instead of Burwood Municipal Council. There are currently about 700 Local Government Areas in Australia. The creation and delimitation of LGAs is the responsibility of the state and territory Governments. In all states and the Northern Territory each incorporated area has an official status. Another term used, especially for the LGA governing bodies, is G3, meaning the third level of Government in Australia. Commonwealth, State, and LGA. G3 is difficult to accurately place in the structure of Australian Government.
  • Local Government Area (LGA, dt. lokales Verwaltungsgebiet) ist ein Begriff, der in Australien (und insbesondere vom Australian Bureau of Statistics) verwendet wird, um das Gebiet einer Stadt- oder Gemeindeverwaltung zu bezeichnen. Der Name eines LGA wird gebildet aus dem Namen des Gebietes und daran angehängt einer Bezeichnung wie Borough, City, District, Municipality, Region, Rural City, Shire oder Town. Zahlreiche LGAs in New South Wales und einige in South Australia besitzen auch den Zusatz Council, wie z. B. Manly Council oder Waverley Council. Dies hängt damit zusammen, dass in einigen regionalen Varianten des australischen Englischs der Begriff Council gleichbedeutend mit dem geographischen Gebiet ist, während in anderen Gebieten dieser Begriff ausschließlich für die gewählten lokalen Ratsvertreter steht. Die Bildung oder Auflösung einzelner LGA fällt in die Zuständigkeit der Regierungen der jeweiligen Bundesstaaten und Territorien. Je nach Gliedstaat gibt es unterschiedliche Namenszusätze: New South Wales: City, Area Victoria: City, Rural City, Borough und Shire Queensland: City, Shire, Town und Island Council South Australia: City, Rural City, Municipality/Municipal Council, District Council, Regional Council und Aboriginal Council Western Australia: City, Town und Shire Tasmanien: City und Municipality Northern Territory: City, Town, Community Government Council und Shire Keine weitere Unterteilung in LGA besitzen das Australian Capital Territory und das Jervis Bay Territory.
  • Une zone (ou région, comté) d’administration locale, appellation utilisée en Australie, surtout par le Bureau australien des statistiques, est une unité administrative gérée par un "gouvernement local". L'Australie est une fédération d'États (Victoria, Queensland) et de Territoires (Territoire du Nord, Territoire de la capitale de l'Australie) mais il n'y a pas de découpage officiel en dessous; certains états sont complètement découpés en comtés, d'autres non. Les noms des LGA sont classés selon les états et leurs caractéristiques; on peut ainsi trouver des régions (Region), comtés (Shire), villes (Town), cités (Cities), municipalités (Municipalities), arrondissements (Borough), etc. (voir ci dessous). Par exemple, le local government area of the Mornington Shire, le gouvernement local du comté de Mornington, île du Queensland. De nombreuses LGA en Nouvelle-Galles-du-Sud ne possèdent plus de classificateur tel que comté ou municipalité, mais on parle tout simplement de conseil (Council). On dit : Manly Council ou Waverley Council. Il s'agit d'une particularité du langage australien où le nom Council désigne une unité administrative alors que dans les autres pays anglophones ce mot désigne seulement les élus qui s'occupent des affaires du gouvernement local. La création et la délimitation des régions "LGA" est de la responsabilité du gouvernement de l'État ou du Territoire. Dans tous les États et dans le Territoire du Nord chaque LGA a son statut officiel. Les différents types de LGA sont les suivants: Nouvelle-Galles-du-Sud : Cities (C) and Areas (A) Victoria : Cities (C), Rural Cities (RC), Boroughs (B) and Shires (S) Queensland : Cities (C), Shires (S), Towns (T) and Island Councils (IC) Australie-Méridionale : Cities (C), Rural Cities (RC), Municipalities/Municipal Councils (M), District Councils (DC), Regional Councils (RegC) and Aboriginal Councils (AC) Australie-Occidentale : Cities (C), Towns (T) and Shires (S) Tasmanie : Cities (C) and Municipalities (M) Territoire du Nord : Cities (C), Towns (T), Community Government Councils (CGC) and Shires (S). Le Territoire de la capitale australienne, le Territoire de Jervis Bay et les territoires externes n'ont pas de régions sous administration locale distinctes du gouvernement de leur Territoire.
  • Local Government Area (abbreviato in LGA e traducibile in "Area ad amministrazione locale") è un termine usato in Australia per indicare un tipo di divisione amministrativa proprio di aree controllate ed amministrate esclusivamente da governi locali. L'attribuzione dello status di Local Government varia da stato a stato; possono essere incluse in questa denominazione sobborghi, aree metropolitane, ditretti, municipalità, regioni, contee e città. Molti LGA nel Nuovo Galles del Sud e nell'Australia Meridionale non possiedono più questa classificazione, ma sono semplicemente catalogate come Council, ad esempio Manly Council o Waverley Council. La creazione e la delimitazione di LGA è sotto la responsabilità degli stati e dei loro governi locali. I vari tipi di classificazione per le LGA correnti sono: Nuovo Galles del Sud: Cities (C) e Areas (A) Victoria: Cities (C), Rural Cities (RC), Boroughs (B) e Shires (S) Queensland: Cities (C), Shires (S), Towns (T) e Island Councils (IC) Australia Meridionale: Cities (C), Rural Cities (RC), Municipalities/Municipal Councils (M), District Councils (DC), Regional Councils (RegC) e Aboriginal Councils (AC) Australia Occidentale: Cities (C), Towns (T) e Shires (S) Tasmania: Cities (C) e Municipalities (M) Territorio del Nord: Cities (C), Towns (T), Community Government Councils (CGC) e Shires (S). Un altro termine usato per indicare questo livello amministrativo è G3 che sta ad indicare il terzo livello di governo in Australia: Commonwealth, Stato, e LGA. È difficile classificare le G3 nella struttura governativa australiana perche questa "istituzione" non è citata nella costituzione del Commonwealth, né in alcuna legge costituzionale e i governi locali ne sono gli unici responsabili. Comunque, negli anni recenti, i governi statali hanno sensibilmente rafforzato il potere delle LGA, come in Queensland dove a queste istituzioni è stato garantito il potere di emanare proprie leggi locali, in contrasto con il sistema precedente. Il Territorio della Capitale Australiana, il Territorio della Baia di Jervis e altri territori esterni non hanno divisioni amministrative come le LGA distinte dal potere governativo.

  • Local Government Area ('lokaal bestuursgebied'), afgekort LGA, is een begrip dat in Australië wordt gehanteerd om een bestuurlijk gebied van een stad of gemeente te beschrijven. De naam van een LGA wordt samengesteld uit de naam van de stad of gemeente met een term als Borough, City, District, Municipality, Region, Rural City, Shire of Town.
  • Áreas de governo local (abreviado LGA) é um termo usado na Austrália (e especialmente pelo Australian Bureau of Statistics) para referir-se a áreas controladas por cada Governo Local indivídual. Os nomes genéricos de Governos Locais varia de estado para estado; exemplos incluem Borough, cidade, distrito, município, região, cidade rural, shire e vila. Muitas áreas do governo local em Nova Gales do Sul e algumas no Sul da Austrália não possuem um estatuto jurídico, como shire ou município, mas são simplesmente conhecidos como "Áreas", e os seus conselhos simplesmente "Conselhos", por exemplo, Burwood Conselho em vez de Burwood Conselho Municipal. Existem atualmente cerca de 700 Áreas de governo local na Austrália. A criação e delimitação de LGAs é da responsabilidade do Estado e de Governos território. Em todos os estados e o Território do Norte cada área incorporada tem um estatuto oficial. Outro termo usado, especialmente pelos corpos governamentais da LGA é G3 pelo terceiro grau de governo na Austrália. Comunidade, Estado e LGA. G3 é dificil de colocar em um local apurado na estrutura do governo australiano, não é mencionado na Constituição da comunidade, nem na maioria das leis constitucionais estaduais. Os Governos dos Estados são responsáveis pela criação a legislação, e ultimamente para supervisão. Entretanto nos anos recentes foi visto os governos do estado cada vez mais devolvendo poderes para a LGA, como em Queensland, aonde a LGA recebeu o poder de agir por si só independentemente da legislação local, em contraste com o sistema anterior de leis..
  • 地方政府區域（簡稱LGAs）乃澳大利亞尤其是澳大利亞統計局對於各地方政府所治理之範圍的通稱。 澳大利亞聯邦政府根據各州及地方上總匯而出的統計資料，以提振地方政府的財政狀況與永續經營為考量，增減了「地方政府區域」的數量和所治理轄境的大小；最主要的內容是統計與各地方相關的數據，並做為政治制度、都市計畫、交通建設、教育政策、文化投資、教育政策、福利制度、法令修訂、便民措施，乃至於選舉方面的重要參考資料。 由於各州的沿革與需要不同，所以地方政府區域的行政位階與政府名稱也不同。自州以下，行政層級最高且稱為「市」的即有：City、Municipality、Rural City；稱為「特區」與「區」的有：District和Region；稱為「郡」的是Shire；其餘位階於郡以下的「鎮」為：Borough與Town。 在新南威爾斯州和南澳大利亞州，已不復見Shire和Municipality的名稱，而是根據LGA以「區域」（Areas）來泛稱；所以許多從雪梨、阿德雷得兩大城市劃分出來的地方政府即未冠予Municipal之名而直稱以Council。再者，由於澳大利亞政制素仿西敏制，自殖民時期即採議會政治，行政部門的首長皆由地方議員出任，所以澳大利亞英語中的地方「議會」（council）即是地方政府（local government）。 惟增減「地方政府區域」的責任屬於州政府和與州相當的北領地政府。劃分時，皆以民情與歷史相近、能創造財政盈餘、可永續發展為原則。 經歷行政改革後，澳大利亞也有了更明確的3等行政層級，即：聯邦（Commonwealth）、州（State）和地方（LGA）；使得州政府對於州內的立法和督導也有了更重大的權限與責任。實際上，州政府則將權責下放予地方政府。例如昆士蘭州在通過行政改革法案後，賦予了地方政府能各別審議和推廣與地方共識有關的法案；而非如過去般，以州政府的角度來施政，不僅在地方上促進了百姓、社會聞人、事業經營者和負責施政者之間的對話，也增添了促使地方進步的活力。
