The APPVA’s Board has defined the organisation’s purpose clearly and this is recorded in its governing documents and understood by the board. Each director understands and meet their duties under the law through a sound onboarding process and directors are appointed based on merit, through a transparent process, and in alignment with the purpose and strategy
Board meetings are held quarterly and provide the opportunity for all directors to contribute to each meeting. The board oversees its risk management framework that aligns to the purpose and strategy.
The Management Committee operates the APPVA on a daily basis and consists of an Executive Committee of four members that meet weekly at the minimum. The full Committee meets monthly. Three of the roles are dual hatted, as is the case with many not for profit organisations. In order that those dual hatted individuals do not have two appointments, they are known as their board appointment, eg Chairman.
