Important Notice for IIA NZ Members: Incorporated Societies Act 2022

On 5 October 2023, the Incorporated Societies Act 2022 came into force, modernising how societies must operate. To remain incorporated, existing societies are required to reregister under the 2022 Act. It’s essential for members to understand the reregistration process and the potential consequences of not completing it. Societies will need to prepare specific documents and may need to adopt new processes to comply and re-register with the Act before 5 April 2026.

The draft IIA NZ Constitution has been available to members since 1 October, with a member review period open until 1 December. To access the draft IIA NZ Constitution, please visit the member portal at https://www.iianz.org.nz/Site/my-iia/, then navigate via your My IIA portal > Toolbox. You can also access the current Rules and By-Laws from our website, here >> https://www.iianz.org.nz/Site/about-us/.

We will also be hosting two member-only online workshops to answer questions and support members through the review process. To register for these workshops, please visit the IIA NZ website here >> https://www.iianz.org.nz/tools/events/list.aspx?SECT=events.

If you would like to submit any feedback on the draft IIA NZ Constitution, please send it to ceo@iianz.org.nz by 1 December 2024, when the member review period concludes.
