Governance Reform Taskforce

The College Board has established the Governance Reform Taskforce (GRT), supported by the Governance Reform Working Party (GRWP), to lead governance reform at the RANZCP. Together, these groups will consult widely, test options and develop new governance pathways, improved feedback loops and more transparent decision-making processes so governance is easier to understand, better able to meet external expectations, and more sustainable for the future.

Membership

The Taskforce members are:

• Professor Andrew Way AM
• Dr Alan Altham
• Prof Megan Galbally
• Ms Jarka Kluth
• Ms Felicity Loxton
• Prof Richard Newton
• Dr Hiran Thebrew
• Dr Angelo Virgona
