Dear Members

The Board of the Australasian College for Infection Prevention and Control Ltd (ACIPC) considers that the constitution of ACIPC requires updating to improve the governance of ACIPC and to ensure that the constitution is compliant with the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) and the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission Act 2012 (Cth).

Accordingly, the Board engaged Hall & Wilcox, the College’s lawyers, to draft a new constitution of ACIPC.

The Executive Council (the Board) of ACIPC is calling an Extraordinary General Meeting of members of ACIPC on Monday 19 August 2024 at 12.30 pm AEST via Zoom to vote on the adoption of the new constitution.
