The purpose of a board is to provide:

• leadership
• financial oversight
• and strategic direction for the organisation.

Members of a board focus on the high-level planning for a business or entity. Rather than the day to day operations. The board must ensure that:

• Finances are sound
• Operations are legal
• Procedures are working
• Assets are safe
• All tasks are carried out in the public interest
