Autumn 2006 Newsletter : Nominations for Treasurer and one Council Member

Nominations are required for the election/re-election of the Branch Treasurer/Assistant Secretary and for one member of Council (see page 3) which will take place at the Annual General Meeting on 4 April 2007. Nomination Forms are available from the Secretary and nominations should be sent on these or in the format required to the Secretary by 7 February 2007. Please submit the names and signatures of the nominee, with a proposer and seconder, who should all be paid up members of the Branch. In the event of the Secretary receiving more nominations than vacancies there will be a postal ballot. The Constitution states that ballot papers must then be sent to all paid-up members, including a short biography (less than 200 words) of each nominee, by 7 March 2007. Ballot papers must be delivered to the Secretary not less than 10 days prior to the Annual General Meeting. The result of any postal ballot will be determined by the method of the Single Transferable Vote (as published by the Electoral Reform Society, 1976). The result of the election will be announced at the AGM to be held on Wednesday 4 April 2007 at 8.45 am. The current membership of the Council and existing Committees is presented below:

The names and signatures of the nominee, proposer and seconder should be sent to the Secretary by 7th February 2007
