All Australia

Fund Raising

1.  If fund raising is done, it would need to be banked and perhaps audited. Kiwi sappers living in Australia will have difficulty with this. Perhaps overtures could be made to the local Australian counterpart [Queensland or Victoria Sappers Association etc] to bank with them. It could be a seperate suffix account called 'New Zealand Sappers' or such like. It is probable that the three signatories would need to join the that Australian association and be subject to their constitution before being accepted to run an account. It is normal to have two out of three signatures to operate a business account. We could recipricate by having an 'Australian Sappers' account in New Zealand.

2.  Funds raised in Austalia could be banked into the New Zealand accounts. New Zealand Sapper Association Visa cards work in Austalia. The exchange rate would be operated at neutral, as each Austalian branch would be spending all their fund raising on social functions. Perhaps the parent suffix accounts in New Zealand could sponsor each State as follows:

(a)  Northern Branch looks after Queensland & Nothern Territory.

(b)  Central Branch looks after New South Wales & Australian Capital Territory.

(c)  Upper South Branch looks after South Australia & Western Australia.

(d)  Otago South Branch looks after Victoria & Tasmania.

3.  Queensland held local gatherings at Redcliffe RSL 29Jun24 attended by five people & Nerang RSL 1Jun25 attended by six people [names in Queensland login web page].
