WS Lonnie Awards

Recognising Excellence and Accountability in Annual Reporting

The primary vehicle for accountability in the Public Sector has been and always will be the way agencies report their performance. The W.S. Lonnie Awards recognise the importance of Annual Reports being accountable and transparent in a succinct and independent way. This year, the Institute is proud to announce that 2012 marks the 27th Anniversary of this important event.
