, immediate Past President of
the DSBA, previously served on the
Council as a DSBA nominee for the
year 1991/92. As a DSBA nominee this
year, he would like to work towards
achieving a better image for the
profession amongst the public and
believes that there should be more
accountability from the Society to the
members of the profession. He suggests
that there should be a sharper distinction
between the Society's representative

the Society's representative functions

I Blackhall Place and the regulatory
I functions from a separate premises.
