On Sunday 21^st July 2019, during the 2019 Clubs Conference hosted at the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron, Yachting Queensland conducted a General Meeting with two very big key agenda items. To change the Club Affiliation Fee System and to adopt a new Constitution.

Pleasingly, with close to 50 representative in the room and a poll conducted for each motion the meeting resulted in the new national Club affiliation system being adopted by Queensland Clubs and the approval of a new Constitution for Yachting Queensland.

The results of the meeting can be read in the minuets that can be found here – Minutes of General Meeting.

A copy of the new Yachting Queensland constitution can be found here – link to Constitution.

The explanation document on how the new club affiliation system works, can be found at this link - An Equitable Approach to Club Levies.
