EIANZ representatives Carolyn Cameron FEIANZ and Ailsa Kerswell MEIANZ will share their inside knowledge of the current status of Australia’s new environmental laws and EIANZ’s response to proposed changes.

The Q&A session will allow you to investigate the issues while helping our delegates gather member opinions in preparation for the next round of consultation. Considering the broad implications of legislative change for our industry, this is a webinar not to be missed.

This webinar will be scheduled using Australian Eastern Daylight Time (AEDT) and will be recorded for those unable to make the live event.
