The council is planning a six-month review of progress since the Thomson Report was released.
The report found a leadership void at the council, with Mayor Sir Tim Shadbolt increasingly unable to carry out his duties.
Hadley said everyone had put a great effort into improving things over the last six months, including putting in place an action plan which involved monitoring and measuring progress along the way and the impact of the two external appointees who the council put in place.

The goal of Project Isabela, initiated in 1997 and completed in 2006, was to eliminate large introduced mammals from northern Isabela Island (approximately 250,000 ha), Santiago Island (58,465 ha), and Pinta Island (5940 ha). The project began in response to the massive ecosystem-wide destruction caused by introduced goats on Alcedo Volcano on northern Isabela. At the start Project Isabela, the goat population on northern Isabela was estimated at 100,000 animals. Eradication work began on the smallest of the islands – Pinta – which was used as a training ground, then shifted to Santiago prior to the arrival of helicopters, which were essential for work to begin on northern Isabela.
