PAGSA Annual General Meeting 2022

The PAGSA Annual General Meeting (AGM) for 2022 will be held on 13 June from 09h00. Due to current circumstances, the meeting will be conducted via Zoom. The PAGSA will handle all arrangements for the meeting, as they have done in the past for face-to-face AGMs. Invitations will be sent out a few days before the meeting, but it is advised to mark the date in your calendar.

Changes to the voting process for Exco members will be implemented to accommodate the virtual meeting. Details of the new procedures will be included in the formal notice pack. It is important to note that all current Exco members have confirmed their availability to serve another term.

The AGM will be split into two separate sessions, each with its own Zoom invitation. The first session, the AGM Formal Session, will take place from 09h00 to 10h30 and is exclusively for payroll supplier members. There will be a 30-minute break between sessions to allow attendees to attend to emails, grab refreshments, etc.

The second session, the Information Session, will be held from 11h00 to 12h30. This session is open to payroll supplier members, associate members, and representatives from the South African Revenue Service (SARS). SARS has graciously agreed to have some of their senior personnel attend this session.

The Information Session will cover the following topics:
1. PAGSA: PAYE Fixed-rate Calculation issues (currently under discussion)
2. SARS: Keynote address by Mark Kingon, providing updates and insights from a payroll and employer perspective.

SARS welcomes input from PAGSA members attending the Information Session and encourages feedback on SARS issues. Mark Kingon will be available to address any questions or concerns from attendees. This is an opportunity for members to engage with SARS and provide valuable feedback to improve their services and products.

Formal AGM notices will be sent out as soon as possible, but there are no proposed changes to the PAGSA constitution at this time.

Please note that all information provided by PAGSA is subject to their DISCLAIMER.

Regards,
Rob Cooper
Chairman, Payroll Authors Group of South Africa
