Our Committee
The AAS-AU committee is made up of 3 office bearers, being the president, secretary, and treasurer, and core committee members. Their powers and responsibilities are explained in the constitution. The committee has members residing in Sydney and in Melbourne.
The day-to-day operation of the committee is similar to a modern organisation where members are required to perform competently according to the position they have undertaken with full reporting procedures with every activity they undertake. The committee works as a team and are all dedicated to the long-term success of this worthy cause.
