Transition Resource Group

The Board has undertaken several activities to support consistent application of the Standard, and has established a Transition Resource Group (TRG) . The purpose of the group is to:

  • provide a public forum for stakeholders to follow the discussion of questions raised on implementation; and
  • inform the Board in order to help the Board determine what, if any, action will be needed to address those questions. Possible actions include providing supporting materials such as webinars, case studies and/or referral to the Board or Interpretations Committee.

Access the latest summary of the implementation questions submitted to the TRG for consideration. The implementation questions are categorised under the following headings:
