The main purpose of the ASPG’s Constitution is to make clear the Group’s objectives, membership and finances, and importantly, its governance arrangements. The Group’s Constitution (and rules) are reviewed regularly and, if necessary, can be altered at the Group’s annual general meeting provided the appropriate notice is given.
- The ASPG Constitution was reviewed and revised in September 2026.
- Constitution (Revised September 2026) to be inserted here.
