New board appointment for Regional
Facilities Auckland
Auckland Mayor Len Brown has
welcomed the appointment of Geoff Clews to the board of
Regional Facilities Auckland (RFA).
Geoff’s appointment
was made at Auckland Council’s CCO Strategy Review
Subcommittee on 7 August 2013.
“Geoff has had a long
history in the arts arena and will bring this breadth of
knowledge to the RFA board,” says Len Brown. “Geoff has
chaired the Bruce Mason Centre, been a director of Q Theatre
and over the years has generously given his time and
expertise to a range of community cultural
organisations.”
“Geoff also brings considerable
experience in the legal, financial and taxation fields,
especially in commercial governance, all most important
these days,” adds Sir Don McKinnon, Chair of RFA.
Geoff Clews will join the RFA board on 1 November 2013
following the retirement of Derek Dallow.
The Council’s
CCO Strategy Review Subcommittee is responsible for all
board appointments to substantive council-controlled
organisations
(CCOs).
