CORMSAA: Committee of Religious Institute and Ministerial Public Juridic Person School Authorities Australia
In 2020, the Association of Ministerial Public Juridic Persons (AMPJP) established the Committee of Religious Institute and Ministerial Public Juridic Person School Authorities Australia (CORMSAA). CORMSAA replaces and builds upon the legacy of Catholic Religious Australia’s education committee.

| Sr Brigette Sipa RSJ (Sisters of St Joseph) | From SA / NT |
| Mary Retel (Mercy Ministry Companions and Oblates of Mary Immaculate) | From WA |
| Martin Teulan (AMPJP) | Executive Director AMPJP |
CORMSAA’s aims include to:
- Focus on the Mission of Catholic Education;
- Promote the unique contribution of Religious Institute and Ministerial Public Juridic Person education;
- Strengthen, and engage collaboratively with, the National Catholic Education Commission (NCEC) and State Catholic education structures/processes; and
- Facilitate Religious Institute and Ministerial Public Juridic Person School Authority communication and collaboration.
CORMSAA facilitates RI-MPJP membership on a number of NCEC structures.
The AMPJP is committed to ensuring that CORMSAA is inclusive of the diversity of Religious Institute and Ministerial Public Juridic Person School Authorities. The AMPJP sees CORMSAA as a means of living the shared mission and fellowship that exists between Religious Institutes and Ministerial Public Juridic Persons.
