The annual MotorSport New Zealand Conference, AGM and Awards took place this weekend in Wellington. On Saturday morning presentations were made to those present followed by the Annual General Meeting in the afternoon. The events of the day are summarised below.
Morning Session:
Prior to the AGM, the Board presented the year’s Financial outcomes and this was discussed with the Club Delegates present. The Structure of the Organisation review was then touched on and the findings from the Working Group were presented.
A proposal from the board was also put forward about the purchase of a building for MotorSport New Zealand. Due to it proving difficult to find a suitable building that met all investment criteria, the Board proposed that MotorSport New Zealand continues to rent premises to operate from and invest the proceeds from the sale of MotorSport House into a professionally managed fund or portfolio of investments. This was agreed on by the Member Clubs.
