Lobbying and Advocacy

In a constantly changing political and legislative arena, Members of the Australasian Fleet Management Association can be confident that they have an industry body which lobbies government on behalf of the fleet industry. AfMA responds to calls for submissions on a wide variety of issues, from taxation to emissions trading to the development of safety strategies.

Members are invited to contribute on behalf of their organisation and industry, resulting in a balanced position which can be put forward by AfMA as an independent Association. In addition, AfMA maintains open channels of communication with industry leaders, political representatives, the media and other industry associations to ensure that Members are informed of upcoming changes.

Members have access to the full archive by contacting the Association.
