We are very pleased to provide you with another update from the Board of Directors.

The board gathered on 19 April for a Board Induction Meeting. Topics include SG’s structure and strategies; Board effectiveness, and the details of SG’s Strategic and Operational Plan for 2018-2021.

The third board meeting was held on Monday 26 April 2021. During the meeting, the following were approved:

  1. Selection policies for:
  1. Asian Youth Games Policy for MAG & WAG
  2. RG Asian Jnr Championship Selection Policy MAG
  1. Updated SE Games Policies for all disciplines which now includes the dates for the August qualifying score nomination event.

  1. P036 SG Staff Flexible Work Arrangements Policy
  2. P017 Personal Data Protection Policy
  3. P041 Board Governance Policy

  1. RG Technical Advisory Committee

The Board approved the RG Technical Advisory Committee. After much scrutiny, deliberation and evaluating alternatives, the Board appointed Cecilia Chia as the Technical Director of the RG TAC. As Cecilia is also a board member, the board is concerned about the potential conflict of interest but agreed that Cecilia best fulfilled the criteria amongst all applicants for the Technical Director position; and that it is in the best interest of the discipline to go ahead with Cecilia’s appointment. To manage any potential conflicts of interest, Cecilia will not be involved with board deliberations on matters involving the RG TAC.

  1. Proposed changes to the SG Constitution which will be tabled at the 2021 AGM.

  1. The conduct of a special audit that will ensure that the financial management policies and processes of the organisation are above repute, and that the organisation’s procurement process complies with FRAS standards and the SportSG guidelines.
