If you are engaged in lobbying — or employ individuals to lobby on behalf of your organization — there are new rules coming into force April 1, 2010. Familiarize yourself with the newly amended Lobbyists Registration Act to ensure you are prepared and in compliance with the legislation.

A new free, user-friendly online registration system will be launched April 1, 2010, when the amendments are brought into force.

Those re-registering or registering for the first time need to obtain a business B.C. electronic ID.
Consultant lobbyists must re-register within 10 days — by April 10, 2010.
Senior officers for non-profit and for-profit organizations must re-register all in-house lobbyists within 30 days — by May 1, 2010. Note: In-house lobbyists no longer register themselves.

Our Networking AM’s are abuzz with activity. Once a month, these morning sessions provide an opportunity for members and future members to meet and mingle over coffee and breakfast. You’ll have an opportunity to speak about your company and then learn a little about other businesses.

You’ll leave with a full stomach, handfuls of business cards, and more importantly…a connection to new faces and businesses located right here in the Tri-Cities.

Plan to attend our next Networking AM. See our events listing for dates and to register on-line.

Here are some photos from a recent Networking AM.
