Notice to Fellows and Members

Fellows and Members are reminded of their rights under the Bye-Laws and Regulations, as follows:

Bye-Law XI

The President shall be elected annually from among the Fellows.

Regulation XI

  1. 1 As soon as may be practicable after the first day of June in any year the Council shall hold a nomination meeting and shall… nominate not less than one candidate and not more than three candidates…

  2. 2 Between the first day of June in any year and the date which is four clear weeks after the nomination meeting of the Council, written nominations, accompanied in each case by the nominees' written consent to stand for election, may be lodged with the Registrar, provided that each such nomination is supported in writing by not less than 12 Members of the College who are not members of the Council.

  3. 3 An election by ballot shall be held in accordance with the provisions of the Regulations.

The nominating meeting of the Council will be held on 28 April 2000 and the last date for receiving nominations under (2) above will therefore be 25 May 2000. Professor John Cox is in his first year of office as President and is therefore eligible for re-election.
