Equestrian Australia – May 2020- Massive Face Plant!
E.A. Board revolving door - Ricky MacMillan , Gillian Canapini quit
Voluntary Administration and the vague (un-achieved) hope of massive reform.
Historic - Sport Australia (Nee The Australian Sports Commission) mandated a specific style of governance (adopted) under the Corporations Act, (referencing Deed of Company Arrangement clauses) that was allegedly a new condition for E.A’s eligibility for government funding, necessitating a new constitution with disastrous results continuing even after Voluntary Administration
LIST - THE ISSUES – Historic until current
THE E.A. CONSTITUTION – THE RULES THAT E.A. Runs By – Maximum Disenfranchisement for Minimum Results; Made Even Worse After Voluntary Administration
