The Annual Governance and Accountability Return (AGAR) is entering the digital age, bringing an exciting new upgrade to how local councils manage statutory reporting. This transition is ultimately designed to modernise our processes and make year-end submissions much smoother for clerks and RFOs.
Join Scribe for their upcoming webinar with Claire Reed (NALC) and Lance Allan (SAAA), where they will walk you through the brand-new online web-portal and the overall digitisation of the AGAR. You will get an exclusive live look at the new system and critical updates to the Proper Practices so that your council stays ahead of the curve.
