- to remove the Chinese Language School from Objects of ACCA;
- removal of appeals provision for members who have been disciplined,
- more factors to be included for Board’s consideration when applying for membership,
- change in number of councillors from 5 to 3, and term of office of Councillors reduced to 2 years, and
- reduction in the number of office bearers to reflect the composition of the Board members.
Vice President Shirley Chan assisted with translation from English to Mandarin.
The proposed amendments were approved unanimously by the members without any alterations. The members were supportive of the constitutional amendments as they agreed they were necessary to improve the efficiency and overall management of ACCA.
