Under its constitution the society was governed by a council of ten members, including residents of both Australia and New Zealand, elected from the membership at the annual general meeting each year. The meeting was held every July alongside the annual conference.
Officers
The first five listed council members formed the executive: a president, two vice-presidents (one in each country), a treasurer and a secretary. The executive met quarterly and the full council twice a year. The remaining council members, and a few members co-opted for a year or two, came from universities and, in some cases, government agencies and the bar in both countries.
Terms
Terms ran for about two years and ended mid-year, so roughly half the council was up for election each time. The page marked each member's term-end year. This archive does not reproduce names.
