MPMSAA Board and National Council election results

As members would be aware, the Coronavirus crisis unfortunately forced us to postpone the Annual General Meeting.  At this event members are advised of the results of elections, we provide a report of the past year and present milestone certificates to members and hear the interesting stories behind their businesses.

We plan to celebrate these member milestones later in the year and have sent a copy of the Annual Report to all members.  This article updates members on the results of the 2020 elections, which are conducted by an independent Returning Officer.

To assist members understand the governance structure of the Association an outline of each body is first provided.

MPMSAA Board and National Council election results

National Council provides oversight of the Association’s policies, Rules and member conduct.  National Councillors are elected for a two-year term from their member categories (B to F) by members of the Association in that category.  Half of National Council is up for election each year. 

Executive Board has broad powers to set the direction and provide oversight of the operations and governance of the Association.  This is then implemented and managed by the Chief Executive Officer.  Executive Board members are drawn from and elected by National Council.  They serve a two-year term, with half of the Executive Board up for election each year.

The office bearers of the Association comprise the President, two Vice-Presidents and a Treasurer elected by the National Council annually.

The Association Secretary is elected by National Council and serves a four-year term.  For reasons of operational practicality, the Secretary traditionally has been the CEO.
