ALDE Subcommittees
Ever wondered what happens on an ALDE subcommittee? A lot of our initiatives, direction and activities are undertaken by the fantastic volunteers who make up the various subcommittees. They meet regularly and workshop and co-ordinate a lot of the ‘behind the scenes’ of our organisation.
ALDE has 11 subcommittees and they cover a range of different areas of interest in relation to the running of ALDE, as well as the advocacy we undertake on behalf of the wider land development industry.
The subcommittees fall under various categories:
Strategic – Assist with the operations and directions of ALDE as an organisation.
Technical – Advocacy & collaboration with different authorities and stakeholders.
Regional – Region specific approach to local issues.
The goal of each subcommittee is to create communication lines within each area to allow fast and effective feedback to and from the Executive Committee, to resolve any issues as needed. All subcommittees are advisory only and can only act as directed by the Executive Committee. Sub-committees are required to meet at least 4 times per year.
An Executive Committee Member is required to be included in each of these subcommittees.
The full list of ALDE Subcommittees are:
- Safety & Environment Subcommittee
- Education Subcommittee
- Membership Engagement Subcommittee
- Power & Communications Subcommittee
- Hydraulic Services Subcommittee
- Local Government Subcommittee
- Diversity & Inclusion Committee
- Governance Committee (Closed to the Executive Board)
- Young Engineers in Land Development (YEiLD)
The Regional Subcommittees are:

An ALDE representative is also invited to participate in a number of relevant external industry groups as part of our relationships with particular organisations.
We feature the current committee members in different editions of The Conduit Newsletter. If you would like to find a member of a particular Subcommittee, have a look through our Archives.
