The next round of community meetings will be rule book workshops to consult with each of the six Noongar agreement groups about the name of their regional corporation and its rule book.
The rule book sets out the name of the corporation and governs how a corporation can be run—for example, how to elect directors and hold valid meetings. Having a rule book that is carefully followed and works well for a regional corporation is essential to maintaining good governance.
The rule book workshops will be convened for consultation purposes only, therefore no decisions will be made at the workshops. The purpose of the workshops is to assist the agreement groups to make amendments where necessary to ensure the draft rule books are relevant and reflect the agreement groups’ current aspirations. A series of community information meetings will follow the workshops to explain the draft rule books and other matters.
The rule book workshops are open to all Noongar people including those Noongar people who are not members of the SWALSC. As the workshops will be discussing the rule books for each regional corporation, you must only attend the meetings for the agreement group areas that you identify with. Light refreshments will be provided at the workshops.
