Mr Chris Mirams Sheep Producers Australia (SPA) Chair has welcomed Robert Herrmann to the SPA Board and congratulate Bindi Murray on her re-appointment to the Board.

“I am pleased to announce that at the SPA Annual General Meeting this week the state farming organisation members have voted to accept the recommendation of the board selection committee.

Bindi and Robert bring a wealth of knowledge, experience and enthusiasm to the Board.” says Chris Mirams SPA Chair.

SPA works to enhance the productivity, profitability and sustainability of the Australian sheep and lamb industry and the role of the Board is crucial to developing strategy and in managing risk and compliance. “The board has a clear sense of purpose, to provide strategic leadership to the sheep industry, enabling a productive, profitable, and sustainable future. This purpose is enabled by three pillars – a sustainable organisation, providing trusted leadership and creating effective policy and advocacy.”

“Board members not only address board issues but are also very active participants in many of SPA’s activities and represent SPA on many industry organisations. I look forward to continuing to progress our goals with a capable and passionate Board that embraces contemporary governance and has a culture of continual improvement.” says Chris Mirams SPA Chair.
