An outgoing message from Painaustralia Chairman, Em Professor Ian Chubb

At Painaustralia’s AGM, Professor Ian Chubb announced that he will step aside from the role of Chairman due to competing interests that make it impossible for him to dedicate the time needed for such an important role at such a critical time.  He welcomed Major General Duncan Lewis as his replacement noting that he is a distinguished and eminently qualified appointment that will lead Painaustralia forward in its next chapter.
