Proposed amalgamation
A 2015 review of local government boundaries by the NSW Government Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal recommended that the Berrigan Council merge with parts of the Jerilderie Shire to form a new council with an area of Шаблон:Convert and support a population of approximately 10,000.[4] The Jerilderie Shire Council submitted an alternate proposal to the Minister for Local Government that the entire Jerilderie Shire amalgamate with the Murrumbidgee Shire.[5]
The NSW Government decided in May 2016 not to proceed with the proposed amalgamation.Шаблон:Citation needed
