This is another reason behind the move at this year's AGM to charge new life members 50% of the full AVA member fee -it recognises that demands tend to be lower on our variable costs, but that fixed costs still need to be covered. To maintain the high professional standard of the awards, the selection committee will include senior representatives of the wide diversity of practice types in Australia as well as the veterinary industry. A s we've previously reported, the AVA formed a taskforce of veterinarians to develop a submission for the Australian Industrial Relations Commission (AIRC) about the affect the award modernisation process would have on the veterinary profession.	./cache/cord-009582-3206fmbs.txt	./txt/cord-009582-3206fmbs.txt
