First annual general meeting to be held on January 24th. The agenda has been set. Main items to discuss include the chair’s report of activities and future directions, the treasurer’s report, a membership report, an update on the national registry as well as a review of the nomination process for officers and board members in anticipation of turn over at next year’s AGM. Finally, the process for bringing forward ideas and participating in working groups will be reviewed.
