NZTYA Constitution

NZYF and NZTYA agree that NZTYA will continue to act as NZYF Council's subcommittee to administer Trailer Yacht affairs in New Zealand and to facilitate this agree that a representative of NZTYA will sit on NZYF Council with the same rights as other NZYF committee chairpersons. Further, NZYF agrees that NZTYA, as an independent body, has the right to collect levies from it's members and to control it's own funds. NZYF looks to NZTYA to carry out the administration of Trailer Yacht affairs generally and NZTYA agrees to act on NZYF's behalf accordingly. Both parties recognise the obligation of NZYF to service it's recognised national classes which are also Trailer Yachts. NZYF recognises that NZTYA is providing specialist services (for example NZTYA rating system) and that while NZTYA has the obligation to supply such services to NZYF members who are not members of NZTYA, NZTYA has the right to make a reasonable charge to that person or club for the supply of such services.
