For a complete list of Commissions and Commissioner appointments please visits the MA website at www.ma.org.au.

The Commissions are an integral element of the MA structure, and are responsible for reviewing feedback received on the current rules and putting forward rule change recommendations to the MA Board.

Rule changes are sometimes made to make competition easier or fairer, to reflect changes in technology or equipment, or to make the meaning of the rule clear. MA acknowledges that those most involved with the sport are in an excellent position to provide feedback on the rules, and encourages those within the Motorcycle Sport community to provide feedback on the current rules.

Feedback can be received from Clubs, State Controlling Bodies and individuals, and must be submitted on a Rule Amendment or Inclusion Form before 28 February to be considered for the next calendar year. Once forms are received they are forwarded to the relevant Commission for consideration.

To find out more about the Rule Change process or to submit feedback, please visit the Competition section of the MA website at www.ma.org.au.
