We are pleased to present the 2021 NZPI Annual Report.
Even with the ongoing effects of the Covid pandemic, 2021 saw continued growth in our profession. We experienced a rise in membership and enjoyed a stronger than expected level of attendance at the 2021 Conference. Our advocacy and engagement with central government continued to grow as we continue to focus on the RM Reform programme, with strong member engagement evidenced by the high attendance levels at the MfE updates events we provided. Once again, this growth was underpinned by growth in our finances, with another surplus achieved, more than offsetting the small loss from 2020.
