The club has a strong and transparent financial oversight structure with a dedicated Treasurer\, a dual signature expenditure process and regular reporting through Executive and Board meetings.\n\nThe budget for 2025 will be presented for approval at the AGM. The Federal Not-for-Profit Act allows that members of a designated\, non-soliciting corporation may resolve not to appoint a public accountant\, but the resolution is not valid unless all the members entitled to vote at an annual meeting of members consent to the resolution. Appointing a public accountant will cost between $6\,000 to $10\,000 to meet standards contained in the Act for an annual Financial Review or Audit. Members at the AGM will be asked to vote on the following motion as special business:\nThe BMA resolves to not appoint a public accountant given our strong financial history and existing internal reporting and oversight mechanisms.\n\nCall for Nominations – Join the BMA Board\nThis isn’t just a reminder—it’s your invitation to lead!\nThe BMA is seeking members to join the Board of Directors and Officers.
