Regional Council AGM 2025

Each year we hold our Annual General Meeting in February to elect the majority of other committees across the South East Region region. This is a physical attendance meeting.

The following outlines the processes for branches to register delegates, nominate members for elected positions, submit motions & rule changes, and outlines all timetables and deadlines for when planning and attending branch committee meetings before the Regional Council AGM.

Branches need to register for the meeting using the online process. This is a two-step process involving the completion of the online delegate registration form and then verifying your submission by email. You will receive an email confirmation of your submission, containing instructions on how to verify after you’ve completed the online form.
