"During this period the NT Government drafted a new
Associations Act Following our representations the Act
now allows a person holding a public practice certificate
issued by an accountant's body to perform Tier 3 audits.
Key note speakers at the Biennial Conference during my
Presidency included former Queensland Premier Wayne
Goss and former NT Chief Minister Shane Stone.
A visit to the Territory of the National Board of CPA Australia
to attend out Biennial Conference and an opportunity to
present to the Board in the opportunities for CPA in Australia.
This presentation and the quality of the Biennial Conference
reinforced the utility of a NT Branch office staffed by
professionals.
The recruitment of a Professor of Accounting at CDU which
addressed a major deficiency highlighted by the national
accreditation process. This was also a period where much
was done to improve the critical relationship between the
Territory's only University and CPA with both parties together
working productively.
The development of a strong Council structure with an
effective Executive Committee that met in between Council
meetings. The PD Sub Committee attracted members
outside of Council which worked effectively and the first non
Council member later became the President of the Branch."
