Six pre-incorporation meetings will be held later this year, following a series of rulebook workshops and 16 community information sessions held by SWALSC over the last few months.
Nominees will put their names forward to be considered by the pre-incorporation meetings as the ‘initial directors’ of the regional corporations. These initial directors will be responsible for opening up the regional corporations for new members to join.
The initial directors will then call elections for the first four ‘member-elected directors’. Those member-elected directors will appoint one of them to be the chairperson of their regional corporation. They will then appoint two more directors, known as ‘expert directors’ who will bring additional skills to the boards of the regional corporations.
Nominations are open to any eligible member who is interested in putting their name forward to be considered by the pre-incorporation meetings. All directors must meet high standards of experience and suitability, as set out in the ILUAs and the draft rule books (available on the SWALSC website).
In 2018, SWALSC facilitated the first round of nominations for the initial directors. The people who nominated and were found to be eligible will remain as ‘director nominees’ to be considered for selection at the pre-incorporation meetings. They do NOT need to lodge a new nomination.
