CPT’s independence and council support

The November 2025 statement explains CPT’s independent status and a change to ongoing council financial support.

What the statement said

On 7 November 2025, CPT thanked the District Council of Coober Pedy for its financial support over the preceding years. It described CPT as an incorporated association independent of the council.

The statement said ongoing council financial support would end from November 2025. CPT intended to continue its community facilitation work through other resources, including in-kind support and local supporters, while maintaining a collaborative relationship with council.

Plans announced at the time

CPT reported seeking grants for activities in 2026. It also announced an inaugural AGM for 19 November 2025 and a Christmas event for 29 November 2025. These dates are historical announcements, not upcoming invitations or confirmation that the events took place.
