Nominations for the ballot for the Board of Trustees and the Council
BAA members are advised that at the Special General Meeting held on 2015 May 27, the resolutions laid out on page 121 of the April Journal were approved by the membership. Nominations are therefore now sought for members of the new Board of Trustees and Council of the Association to be elected next October.
Under the new constitution, the elected Board of Trustees comprises:
1 President, 1 Vice-President (ex officio), 1 Treasurer, 1 Business Secretary and 5 other elected members. In addition to the Section Directors and Postholders, the Council comprises the Trustees as above, plus two further elected Secretaries, and five other elected members.
If you would like to be nominated as a Trustee or a member of Council, you must be a paid-up member. Please ask two other paid-up members to propose and second you and then sign the letter or form yourself to show that you are willing to stand. Alternatively you may wish to nominate someone else, in which case the same conditions apply. If standing as a Trustee, you must confirm that you have read and understand the responsibilities of the Trustees of a Charity as set out on the website of the Charities Commission, and that you are prepared to accept and fulfil these responsibilities to the best of your ability.
All nominations must be in writing and sent to the BAA office or the Business Secretary by post or e-mail to arrive by 2015 June 19. A nomination form is attached to this message for your convenience, but provided the above conditions are fulfilled, its use is not obligatory.
Best regards
Bill Tarver, Business Secretary
