These positions will be open for nominations due to the completion of a three-year term by Ron Adams and Dr Michele Allen. Adams has expressed his desire to seek re-nomination.

Voting members of FWPA are entitled and encouraged to propose candidates to the director selection committee.

Information about FWPA and the process for appointing directors is set out in FWPA’s constitution which is on the website www.fwpa.com.au

The director selection process operates totally independent of the FWPA board.

Proposals for candidates should:
· Provide sufficient information about the candidate to allow the director selection committee to fully consider the candidate’s nomination
· Include specific information about the candidate’s ability to meet one or more of the requisite skills and experience nominated in FWPA’s constitution
· Include a statement that the proposed candidate is aware of his or her nomination and is willing to accept appointment as a director of FWPA if elected.

Proposals are to be sent to Rob Lockwood via email at [email protected] by 5pm on July 5, 2013.
