AFTA has announced a series of changes to the charter and code of conduct that govern its AFTA Travel Accreditation Scheme (ATAS) in response to its fourth-year review.
“The appointed reviewer, Hank Spier, has produced a detailed and extensive review of the ATAS charter and I am pleased to announce that the board has accepted 20 of the 29 recommendations in full,” said AFTA chief exec Jayson Westbury.
Changes include an overhaul of Attachment D Solvency Definitions which detail the financial ratio tests that AFTA runs to assess an applicant or renewing applicant.
Additions to the code of conduct include obligations to incorporate Australian Consumer Law and Guarantees.
