We are very pleased to welcome lots of new representatives to the PPN &  look forward to working together over the coming years and to enhancing all our capacity to represent the issues that impact all of us and to facilitate our Reps to bring them to the table. There is enormous expertise and capacity within the PPN membership and we really appreciate people giving up their time voluntarily to take on leadership roles to steer and shape the network.

The nominations received during election were greater than the number of spaces available and we appreciate everyone who put their name forward to take on representation roles in the PPN. It also highlights the interest and we will work to strengthen the links between Representatives and members on specific interests, which will help the flow of information, enhance the input to committees and help achieve some positive outcomes.
