BOARD MEMBERS

The Arirrki Board of Directors is normally made up of the senior elder, approved by the family members of the five families that make up the Lalara Clan. Each Director is approved at the AGM. A community Liaison Officer, is separate to the Board of Directors, and this position is held by the Clan Leader, currently Mr Abel Lalara. The Community Liaison position is not voted on, but rather held on the basis of cultural respect and hierarchy. Although his opinion is highly regarded, he does not have voting rights on the Board.

Hamilton is a former chairman and has the long term vision to see Arirrki establish plans for future generations of Lalara.

Russell has been involved with the Arirrki Board Board since its start. He brings a great wealth of knowledge to the board based on that history.
