GOVERNANCE<br />
Mana whakahaere<br />
<strong>2017</strong>/<strong>18</strong> saw <strong>Aktive</strong> governed by an eight-member Board, chaired<br />
by Raewyn Lovett ONZM and supported by trustees Graham Child,<br />
Nick Alexander, Eru Lyndon, Peter Meehan, Helen Robinson, David<br />
Tse and Jo Wiggins.<br />
As a group, the Board has extensive sport, business and governance<br />
knowledge and experience that stands <strong>Aktive</strong> in good stead.<br />
An audit and risk subcommittee, chaired by Peter Meehan, meet on<br />
a bimonthly basis and a health and safety subcommittee, chaired by<br />
Jo Wiggins, and commercial subcommittee, chaired by David Tse,<br />
met quarterly.<br />
Risk<br />
The <strong>Aktive</strong> Board respects its obligation to identify and oversee<br />
potential risk to the organisation and the wider sector. Every<br />
meeting agenda includes a risk register that has been reviewed<br />
by the audit and risk subcommittee and a health and safety report.<br />
<strong>Aktive</strong> continues to review and provide a health and safety policy<br />
that meets related legislation requirements and ensures its delivery<br />
partners understand and are contractually committed to these<br />
obligations.<br />
Communication<br />
<strong>Aktive</strong>’s Board is committed to advancing relationships and<br />
engagement through open communication with <strong>Aktive</strong> employees,<br />
delivery partners and stakeholders.<br />
This is facilitated through attendance of major stakeholders such<br />
as Sport New Zealand and Auckland Council at <strong>Aktive</strong> Board<br />
meetings, regular meetings with chairs of Regional Sports Trusts and<br />
other providers, and one-on-one engagements with stakeholders,<br />
supplemented by the distribution of reports and communications.<br />
Advisory Groups<br />
<strong>Aktive</strong> has a strategic priority to engage collaboratively with a wide<br />
range of central government and regional stakeholders. To support<br />
this, advisory groups have been formed with experts serving<br />
as follows:<br />
<strong>Aktive</strong> Māori Advisory Group<br />
In <strong>2017</strong>/<strong>18</strong>, the <strong>Aktive</strong> Māori Advisory Group (AMAG) was<br />
instrumental in the transition of He Oranga Poutama (HOP) from<br />
Sport Waitakere to <strong>Aktive</strong>. Participation in HOP’s programme<br />
continued to increase during this significant change. More recently,<br />
AMAG’s core focus has been providing input and guidance for<br />
<strong>Aktive</strong>’s upcoming strategic plan process.<br />
