National Executive & Staff
The ASMS has a democratic structure with branches whose boundaries usually coincide with those of each DHB. The top decision and policy making body is the Annual Conference.
Most branches are managed by an elected local committee who also select delegates to attend Annual Conference. Between conferences, management of the Association lies with an elected National Executive of ten members. They are elected every two years.
The President and Vice President are elected by national postal ballot. The other eight members of the National Executive are regional representatives elected by postal ballot within their region. The National Executive elects one of its members to be National Secretary.
