Editor appointed branch president

 

Peninsula News editor Mr Mark Snell has been elected president of the Central Coast branch of the Australian Conservation Foundation.

Mr Snell said that articles under his name would appear in Peninsula News from time to time, but that he did not intend to give the branch undue coverage.

He was aware of the potential conflict of interest between his two roles, and declared this in the page two panel about Peninsula News.

Where there was any doubt about what to publish, he said he would be guided by others at the newspaper.

Mr Snell said that potential conflicts of interest of this nature affected many small organisations within the community.

He believed that a transparent approach was the best way to ensure that readers were in a position to judge the merits of the news presented in the paper.
