November meeting minutes and information

ARTSA’s final meeting for 2018, held at LaTrobe Golf Club in Melbourne covered the bases in terms of industry representation (SVSEG, TLG, TWG, IAG, Recalls) and much more.

Minutes are here. Whilst there appears to be much activity in Government circles real progress is very slow. This is the inevitability of the Government process which does require considerable process to progress!!

ARTSA 2019

Our program starts with the first meeting at the new Izuzu headquarters in Truganina on the 12th February at 8.30am. Download the year’s program here and put it in your diary.

Our focus will be on establishing the concept of the “ARTSA Institute” and giving the heavy vehicle sector a firmer voice in its future direction. This will require some serious effort in collaboration and we also need to consider the benefits of stand-alone versus collaboration models of operation and even a possible merger in future. This will be the strong focus of the February 12th meeting.
