Regional Councillors
The terms of office of Penny du Plessis (Gauteng), Carmen Venter (KwaZulu-Natal), and Rynoe Smith (Central) expire at the AGM, and elections must therefore be held in these regions to elect new regional committees. The elections take place at an election meeting, which can be held on the same date as and immediately following after a regional meeting (par 6.2 of the Regulations for Regional Committees) (the regulations). Under the provisions of the regulations, nominations for members to serve on these regional committees will only be accepted at the relevant meeting.
The FISA chairperson and regional chairperson of the Northern Regional Committee, Mr Ian Brink, has resigned as regional chairperson as he is retiring and leaving the fiduciary industry. His resignation is effective from the 2023 AGM which will be held in Cape Town on 15 March 2023. Ian’s term as chairperson of FISA also expires at the 2023 AGM. His resignation as regional chairperson necessitates an election for chairperson in the region, for a term of one year, to fill the vacancy until the next ordinary regional election in the region in the run-up to the 2024 AGM.
