Hospital Pharmacists Group Committee election 2006

Nominations are invited from members of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society's Hospital Pharmacists Group for candidates to stand for election to the committee.

There are vacancies for two committee members to represent England and one to represent Wales.

Candidates to represent England in the election must be group members resident in England and may be nominated only by group members also resident in England.

The candidate to represent Wales in the election must be a group member resident in Wales and may be nominated only by group members also resident in Wales.

Nominations should be submitted to Robert Clayton, secretary to the Hospital Pharmacists Group, at the Society’s headquarters, and should be received by 18 March 2006.

Nominations need not be made on a special form. The proposer should state his or her registered name, registered address and registration number. The nominee must submit confirmation that he or she is agreeable to the nomination.

If more candidates are nominated than there are places to fill, an election will be carried out by postal ballot in April 2006. Only members of the group living in England will be eligible to vote for two committee members to represent England. Only members of the group living in Wales will be eligible to vote for one committee member to represent Wales. Candidates will be required to submit a statement of policy amounting to no more than 200 words.

Elected members of the group committee normally serve for three years. However, the structures supporting the Council will be reviewed as the reforms stemming from the Society’s new Charter and the proposed new legislation are agreed and implemented. Depending on the timing and outcomes of this review, the term of office for members elected in this election might be reduced.

Robert Clayton
Secretary to the Hospital Pharmacists Group
