nominations will be nominations put forward by the Council for all officers. However, the Council does not nominate members of the Council - that is left to members.

General Secretary by the 1st March 2015 at the latest and must be accompanied by the written consent of the candidate. If there are more candidates than vacancies there will be a postal ballot.

The results of the elections will be announced at the A.G.M. which will be held on Saturday 16th May 2015. Full details will be mailed to members in the Spring.
