Implementing Successful Amalgamations
Contents

Overview

The Better Practice Guide (BPG) aims to provide guidance for those implementing an amalgamation. It provides a series of questions identifying what needs to be done to achieve a successful amalgamation following the formal announcement of the amalgamation and the Administrative Orders for the new arrangements being finalised. The BPG’s aim is to alert those managing an amalgamation to actions that should be considered. How the Guide is applied will depend on circumstances. A lot will depend on how clear the expectations of the amalgamation are and on how complex it is.
