The election for the Governing Council of the Motor Traders’ Association of NSW (MTA NSW) is to be held early in 2021. Nominations for Governing Councillor positions and the role of Secretary are scheduled to open on 19 February 2021.
All eligible members who wish to participate in the elections are encouraged to apply and will need to ensure that their membership is current at that time (except the role of Secretary).
The Council provides a forum for the reviewing of general matters relating to the automotive industry, trade divisions and relevant policies. The Council also acts as a conduit for the flow of information to, and the representation of members’ interests.
