Office Bearers & Committees
The activities of the organisation are governed by General Council which includes the federal office bearers (Executive) plus a nominee from each Branch Council, usually the Branch Chairperson, and trainee representative. The General Council meets quarterly. In addition, Branch Councils in each state provide a point of local contact for members and manage local educational and networking events. Various Committees operate at a Federal and state/ territory level to support the work of the organisation.
