Proposed changes to the NZAIA Constitution, 2025
By April 2026, NZAIA will have to re-register with the Companies Office as an Incorporated Society under the Incorporated Societies Act 2022. That requires the Association to ensure its Constitution complies with the Act; accordingly, the Core Group has been working for the last two years to review and revise the existing Constitution to meet the requirements of the new legislation.
Following the last phase of consultation with members, which closed at the end of May 2025, the Core Group finalised the draft of the proposed new NZAIA Constitution:
If accepted by members at the 2025 AGM, the new Constitution will be submitted as part of the re-registration documentation and will come into effect as soon as re-registration is confirmed by Companies Office.
There is further information on the Companies Office website about the re-registration process.
