Our Structure

ANKC Ltd Board

Plus the Directors from the eight [8] ANKC Ltd Member Bodies.  The Directors are usually the Member Body's President and where applicable a Vice President or a Committee Member.  The Board of Directors meets three times per year - the second Saturday of February; the third Saturday of June; and the third weekend of October.

There is a maximum of eleven [12] Directors of the ANKC Ltd made up of Two [2] Directors for Member Bodies representing in excess of 10% of the total membership of the Member Bodies [DOGS QUEENSLAND, DOGS NSW, DOGS SA and DOGS VICTORIA] and one [1] Director for each Member Body representing 10% or less of the total membership [DOGS ACT, DOGS WEST, DOGS NT and DOGS TASMANIA]. Each Director has one [1] vote on all matters before the Board.

ANKC Ltd Committees

There are a number of Committees working under the ANKC Ltd. These Committees usually meet on an annual basis or by confer link if required more frequently.

There is a Charter for each ANKC Ltd Committee that the Committee is required to work within. The voting for Committees is the same as for Directors when there is a representative from each ANKC Ltd Member Body present; otherwise it is one vote per person attending the meeting.

ANKC Ltd Working Parties

The Working Parties manage a considerable amount of the day-to-day work that occurs between meetings that is not dealt with by the Administrator. The majority of this work is completed via facsimile, telephone confer link or email.      

The voting for Working Parties is one vote per person attending the meeting.
