Hi Maureen (or Tony if using Maureen's address!!)


I am in a similar situation, except that I am involved in the state 
regulatory side also. We are currently setting up requirements and 
duties for RSOs in New South Wales. I am personally pushing for an 
RPA/RPS - type system. Having worked in the UK, I think it is a 
sensible and workable arrangement. Any definitions you get would 
be very helpful. Would it be possible to get a summary of what you 
receive please?


Many thenks
