NRMA's Board fees are determined and set by Members in general meeting, in accordance with its Constitution. Committee fees are determined by the Board with reference to independent external advisers.
By convention, the President and Deputy President do not receive fees for their attendance at Committee meetings. Statutory superannuation guarantee contributions are paid by NRMA on behalf of all employees and Directors at the rate of 13%. Superannuation contributions are in addition to any fees paid to the Directors set out below.
The fees paid to Board members by each of the commercial trading subsidiaries are for their services in addition to their duties with NRMA. This is because each of these businesses is a substantial commercial enterprise in its own right, with the attendant time requirements, risks and responsibilities carried by the Directors.
Thrifty Car Rental and Adventure World Travel each have minority shareholders and Directors other than those appointed by NRMA. Thrifty Car Rental, Adventure World Travel and NRMA Holiday Parks have all sought assistance in relation to the level of Board fees by reference to independent external remuneration consultants, John Egan & Associates, to ensure that all fees are in accordance with the market and independently assessed.
