The Board has overall responsibility for the management or supervision of the management of affairs of the Association. Board members are representing the interests of the members of the Association. As such, both the Board and its members are entrusted that the organisation is soundly managed for the benefit of all.
The Board is made up of 10 elected members from the membership through an annual nomination and voting process and the three Regional Group Chairs. The elected members are elected for a three year term. After changes to the Constitution in 2006, the Executive is nominated from the elected members and holds office for a one year period.
The Board of the Association generally meet monthly over eleven months of the year, commencing February and concluding December of each year. A January meeting can be called in special circumstances.
The Executive and Board reviewed the committee structure during 2006 and early 2007 and created a five-committee structure.
