2022 Draft constitution
The changes proposed in the 2022 Draft Constitution create a new Board composition, made up of Veterans with a range of skills and experience to ensure that our organisation is appropriately governed, with a majority of directors elected by members. These changes also require some new wording in the constitution regarding the State Council of District Presidents.
