Committees at Work
Nomination Committee
Effective July 1, 2015, the Nomination Committee was combined with the Election Committee to form the new Governance Committee. The Nomination Committee’s mandate to nominate individuals to the positions of Chair and Vice-Chair and to committees of Council at the start of a Council term, is part of this new committee’s mandate.
Following the April 2015 election, the Nomination Committee prepared recommendations for the positions of Chair and Vice-Chair of Council and for membership on each of the Council committees. The successful candidates to the positions of Council Chair and Vice-Chair were elected at the inaugural meeting in July. Membership on each of the Council committees was also confirmed at the inaugural meeting of the seventh Council. In addition, the committee initiated the process to fill the vacant Northeast regional positions by approving advertisements for Professionally Speaking/Pour parler profession.
