Feb 26, 2024
At a Special General Meeting held on Wednesday 21 February, members of Chartered Accountants Ireland voted to approve a resolution to amalgamate with CPA Ireland. Over 10,000 Institute members voted. The resolution was passed by a majority in accordance with the Institute's Bye-Laws, with 53.5% of votes cast in favour.
Members of CPA Ireland also approved the amalgamation proposal at an Extraordinary General Meeting also held on Wednesday 21 February.
Both Institutes will now begin to work collaboratively on the next steps required to create a single Irish based accountancy body, named Chartered Accountants Ireland, which will be the largest professional body on the island of Ireland. The Institute will keep members informed of progress throughout this process.
