GIA Mandate Forum 2015 announced

The next forum will be held in Wellington on 29 October 2015. This event will be a targeted action planning workshop for sectors that have not yet signed the GIA Deed but who are working out how they go about signing, working out their commitments, and seeking mandate from their membership.

Please note: if your sector has already signed the Deed or is well through the process of making a decision on whether or not to join, you won't need to attend. If you would like to discuss whether it would be beneficial for you to attend, please get in touch with Steve (steve.rich@mpi.govt.nz).
