Rules and Criteria for Nomination and Election of Trustees

Criteria for Nominations

• The Nominee must be associated with a member group but need not necessarily be the Chair, Manager, Director or other principal office holder. A member, worker, volunteer, trustee or committee member may be nominated.
  
  
• Nominees must be proposed by one group and seconded by another separate group - both of which must be registered with the Partnership. Lists of groups registered with the Partnership are available on request.
  
  
• The Nomination Form must be signed by individuals who have the appropriate authority from the proposing and seconding organisations as well as the nominee him/herself.

Nomination Procedure

1. Submitted Nomination Forms are checked by a PCP member of staff for eligibility.
   
   
2. Completed applications are considered by PCP's Board of Trustees at the next available Board meeting.
   
   
3. PCP member groups will be invited to vote via a postal ballot if there is more nominations than available places.
   
   
4. Nominations will be ratified at Plymouth Community Partnership's next available AGM.
