The retiring Executive Committee propose a mandate for the ExCom in 2024 term to transition FACC to continue operation as Company Limited by Guarantee, under ASIC registration for national presence, the good governance framework and establishing the state chapters to better serve the purpose of multi-state activities, cultural inclusion and engagement form our industry partners.

Each nomination must be signed by the nominating FACC members (two are required) and the nominee. Only members or representatives of corporate members can be nominated.
