As the new year begins, so does our membership year. Membership renewal invoices were sent to all existing 2024 members in December. We wish to thank those who have already paid promptly – as a not-for-profit organisation, your support is invaluable.
If you have any questions about your membership invoice, please contact Shannon Conaglen, IIA NZ Operations Manager, at admin@iianz.org.nz. Please ensure all renewals are paid before the end of February. We will send reminders and reach out to those we haven’t heard from regarding their renewal.
We look forward to connecting, engaging, and continuing to strengthen our profession together in this exciting year.
Ngā mihi nui,
The IIA NZ Team

The IIA NZ Gala Awards Dinner on Tuesday, 5 November 2024, was truly a night to remember – a stunning setting, a meaningful occasion, and a powerful celebration of excellence within our profession. Surrounded by colleagues and supporters, we gathered to honour the achievements and contributions that drive internal auditing forward in New Zealand. The evening was filled with inspiring moments, heartfelt recognition, and shared pride in upholding the highest standards.

On 5 October 2023, the Incorporated Societies Act 2022 came into force, modernising how societies must operate. To remain incorporated, existing societies are required to reregister under the 2022 Act. It’s essential for members to understand the reregistration process and the potential consequences of not completing it. Societies will need to prepare specific documents and may need to adopt new processes to comply and re-register with the Act before 5 April 2026.
The draft IIA NZ Constitution has been available to members since 1 October, with a member review period open until 1 December.

You can also access the current Rules and By-Laws from our website, here >> https://www.iianz.org.nz/Site/about-us/.
We will also be hosting two member-only online workshops to answer questions and support members through the review process. To register for these workshops, please visit the IIA NZ website here >> https://www.iianz.org.nz/tools/events/list.aspx?SECT=events.
If you would like to submit any feedback on the draft IIA NZ Constitution, please send it to ceo@iianz.org.nz by 1 December 2024, when the member review period concludes.
