On 29 May 2020, the AFA Board approved changes to the AFA By-Laws with respect to the handling of disciplinary matters.  The key changes are as follows:

• Providing greater flexibility with respect to who can be appointed as an Investigating Officer to consider a complaint or other investigative matter.
• Giving members the opportunity to make a submission to the Board where they are subject to an investigation under clause 53 of the By-Laws, and the Investigating Officer has recommended to the Board that the member be issued with a reprimand.

In accordance with the AFA Constitution, AFA By-Laws – Board Approved – 29 May 2020 are published for 60 days.
