The Treasurer may be proposed for a second three year term unopposed if he or she is willing, otherwise two or three candidates will be proposed for the position of Treasurer. The candidates for President-Elect must have served previously as an Officer or Councillor for at least two years or as the chairman of the Organizing Committee of an annual meeting. All nominees must confirm their willingness to stand for office. Each candidate must be nominated and seconded by two paid-up members of the Society, be members of the Society and provide written confirmation of his or her willingness to stand for election.
