Perth Lord Mayor Lisa Scaffidi has been disqualified from holding office for 18 months, after she was found to have breached the Local Government Act for failing to declare travel and gifts.

The State Administrative tribunal has imposed the penalty after finding her guilty earlier this year of 45 breaches of the Act.

Channel Seven report Geof Parry joined Mornings with Gareth Parker, to share the reaction from Local Government minister David Templeman.
