Administrators in control of longstanding agricultural advocacy organisation, The Pastoralists and Graziers Association of Western Australia Inc. (Administrators Appointed) (PGA), have issued a report to creditors detailing the results of their month-long administration process and investigations into the financial irregularities of the PGA.
The report – which has been lodged with the Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety – outlines the outcomes of their review into the organisation’s operations and provides recommendations regarding next steps.
Australia Partners Jerome Mohen and Greg Dudley were appointed as Joint and Several Voluntary Administrators of the PGA on 30 January, 2025.
Mr Mohen said the PGA Executive and Committee engaged proactively with Administrators through the process, reflecting their commitment to seeing the organisation work through the administration process.
‘At this stage, we have received a Deed of Company Arrangement (DOCA) proposal – a binding agreement between the PGA and creditors, which would maximise the chances of the PGA continuing to trade,” Mr Mohen said.
“We have made the recommendation to creditors that the DOCA be accepted, as it will provide better outcomes for creditors, the PGA, and its members.”
The report also outlined the outcome of the administrators’ investigations into the organisation’s financial irregularities.
The Administrators have provided their investigation findings to the WA Police and have requested that they conduct further investigations as to whether there has been any criminal activity with respect to these matters. As a result, the Administrators will be making no further comment on this matter.
The Administrators will present their recommendation on the future of the PGA at a creditor’s meeting in Perth on Friday 7 March.
