Bulletin for RSD

Call for interested RSD Members to help shape future direction

Dear RSD Member,

VACC has 16 Divisional Committees that represent different sectors of the automotive industry. Business owners operating in the servicing of automotive radiator and cooling systems and other related components represent the industry on the RSD Divisional Committee. Key functions of the Committee include sharing information and raising issues affecting the industry, which may include regulation, vehicle building and repair rules, and issues existing where vehicle rules differ across state borders. Issues raised in Committees help form VACC’s work, including setting policy positions for government and regulators.

The automotive industry is experiencing great change, including consumer demands, engineering design and evolving regulation. These factors affect the way small-and medium-sized businesses operate. Through Committees, a targeted position can be delivered to government, so that the impact of its actions is understood. VACC fights for its members on key policy issues generated and driven through Committees. Business input into Committees is crucial to ensure the industry has a leading voice.

The Radiator Service Division (RSD) is a VACC Division representing Victorian businesses which service automotive radiators, cooling systems and related components. RSD supports members’ business activities by identifying issues impacting industry and by working with government, authorities and the broader community to rectify them. A VACC Industry Policy Advisor works with the RSD Executive Committee to support the interests of businesses in the industry.

VACC is calling for any RSD member to join the Executive Committee to help shape the future direction of the radiator service industry. Members are able to attend any upcoming meetings if they wish, before they make a decision about if they want to serve on the committee.
