Submissions
The IPA regularly contributes submissions to Government and
regulatory authorities on subjects that will impact, or have the
potential to impact, IPA members and the profession as a whole.
Submissions are made either jointly by the three professional
bodies or each body independently.
These submissions rely on feedback provided by a wide range of
members to ensure they accurately reflect the opinions of the
profession. Members are encouraged to give feedback so that it may
be incorporated into the IPA's full, formal submission. To provide
feedback, please contact the Executive General Manager
Representation & Innovation, Vicki Stylianou, via email or
phone on (03) 8665 3100.
