Purchase Cards Policy

Objective

The objective of this policy is to detail standard purchase card practices across Mid-Western Regional Council and to highlight the obligations of council officers with the delegated authority to purchase goods and services of any value or type on behalf of Council by way of a purchase card. Purchase card usage is a function that is high risk in terms of corruption and therefore it is subject to internal controls and processes.

Successful purchase card usage provides great flexibility and potentially increases efficiency of services, expediting lead times and reducing administrative burden.

Council currently has two types of purchase cards that are regulated by this Policy. These are:

• Corporate Card

• Fuel Card
