- There are two nominators, both current financial members
- The nominee is a current financial member
- The nominee has accepted the nomination
As no position received more than one nomination, no elections were required. Thus the following people will be declared elected at the AGM.
One vacancy - for ordinary committee position - remains. Under the Rules, the AGM can fill this position from the floor, or it can be left vacant for the Committee to co-opt under Rule 21(4).
