    • Kia ora Koutou,  Please find attached a corrected version of the previous AGM minutes. The earlier version was circulated before the corrections previously agreed had been applied. The attached version includes those agreed corrections and full legal names and should be treated as the version for consideration at the AGM on 9 May 2026. For transparency, the corrected minutes have been clearly marked as a corrected version.  At AGM the corrected minutes will be ratified as being the true and correct record.  Also, minor amendments have been made to the financial statement, two of the expenses had been labelled backwards and have now been corrected to read clearer. Also available is the same financial statement but now completed in XRB format, of which the society may need to use in the future to meet Government regulations.  --  Maxine Lynch  President, Federation of New Zealand Aquatic Societies    Statement of financial performance FNZAS 2025 2026 XRB report.pdf FNZAS AGM 2025 corrected.pdf Statement of financial performance FNZAS 2025 2026.pdf
