ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
MOTION 1
That the New Zealand Institute of Medical Radiation Technology (NZIMRT) award an
honorarium to each of the members of the Board of Directors (BOD) as of the 2012 Annual
General Meeting (AGM).
This BOD consists of the following:
• One elected representative from each of the six regions (6 Regional Directors)
• Education Director
• International Society of Radiographers & Radiologic Technologists (ISRRT) Director
Rationale: The new governance structure of the Institute was put in place following the 2012 AGM. The honoraria structure
was not updated as part of that change and therefore the current honoraria structure does not match the newly instituted
structure of the Board.
The motion would result in the honoraria structure matching the Institute structure allowing for all Regional Directors,
Education Director and the ISRRT Director to receive an honorarium.
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
MOTION 2
That the New Zealand Institute of Medical Radiation Technology (NZIMRT) increase the
payment of honoraria to Board of Director members by 5% - an increment of $50.00 effective
for the 2013 / 14 year.
The new payments would be:
• $1100.00 per annum for each director
• An additional $1100.00 for the BOD elected President
Rationale: The BOD reviewed the honoraria structure as part of the change in governance structure. The honorarium was last
reviewed and increased in 2006 by a $50.00 increment.
Honoraria are paid as recognition of significant work completed by Board members for the benefit of the profession. This
proposed increase is less than the annual CPI increment being applied.
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
MOTION 3
That the New Zealand Institute of Medical Radiation Technology (NZIMRT) increase the
payment of honoraria to Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Panel members by 5% an increment of $20.00 effective for the 2013 / 14 year.
The new payments would be:
• $387.00 per annum per CPD Panel Member
Rationale: The BOD reviewed the honoraria structure as part of the change in governance structure.
Honoraria are paid as recognition of significant work completed by CPD Panel members for the benefit of the profession.
This proposed increase is less than the annual CPI increment being applied.
