Rabbi Selwyn Franklin is the interim president of the New Organisation of Rabbis of Australasia and the vice-president of the NSW Kashrut Authority...a situation which The Executive Council of Australian Jewry finds questionable.

The President of the New South Wales Board of Deputies Yair Miller and the President of the JCA Peter Philippsohn, have welcomed the NSW Kashrut Authority’s (KA) acceptance of their nomination of five new lay leaders to be appointed to the Board of the KA.
