This Association has three grades of membership:

The annual membership fee for Full Members is determined from the amount of CCP’s sold by the member in the previous financial year. The minimum annual fee for Full members is currently $4400 for producers and marketers, all fees are inclusive of GST. Full members have voting rights at all Association meetings.
   
• Associate and Overseas Membership is open to any organisation or individual interested in the objects of the Association.

Associate and Overseas Members are encouraged to attend and participate in all Association activities and meetings, however they do not have voting rights.
   

The Association operates on the basis of consensus. Accordingly, all matters related to changes to our objects must be put before the association members and require a vote. The ideals of consultation and cooperation are encouraged for the development of all positions to be taken by the association on the matters of CCP utilisation.
