Forthcoming meetings in Australasia
MGI Australasia is now only weeks away from our AGM to be held in Perth on 17 – 18th July. Delegates will be flying in one day earlier to participate in a day of Committee meetings on July 16th. The Committee meetings will include Practice Management, Tax, Audit and a meeting of the MGI Australasia Executive Committee. This year will feature two sponsors who are sponsoring the AGM for a second time – MYOB a provider of accounting software and Accountancy Insurance. Arrangements are well underway.

Work is also underway with planning the MGI Australasian Tax Summit to be held later in the year.
