Who we are

The Council is made up of six health practitioners and two laypersons.

We operate on the principle of collective responsibility. Council members may have been nominated by an organisation, but do not represent that organisation at Council meetings. Council members are paid for their time carrying out Council work. The Council sets the payment rates. The following rates were set on 10 February 2009:

Council Meetings:

Chairperson - $640.00 per day
Member - $525.00 per day

Fees for Council work other than Council meetings are:

Chairperson - $100.00 per hour
Member - $80.00 per hour
