A.N.G.F.A. Report A.G.M. 2001

By Dr Bruce Hanson

The AGM on Friday evening was a very quiet affair as these things go. President Mark Chettle was unable to make it due to apparently last minute work problems so the Vice President (yours truly) and ex-secretary, Doug Collom deputised . The usual financial, regional and publications reports followed, Port Macquarie was accepted as the locality for the 2002 Convention and the current Committee was re-elected with a couple of changes, most notably a new secretary. Welcome to the job, Heidy Rubin. General business included a discussion of problems with the current communication system between committee members and the new Commonwealth Bio-diversity legislation and its implications for the aquarium hobby. This will need careful evaluation by all regional groups. The meeting closed reasonably early and was followed by convivial discussions over drinks.
