| If
you or a fellow regulator you know is interested in getting more involved in
the direction of IAGR and to contributing time and energy to making the
association even better than it is today, you will be interested to know that
nominations are now being accepted for IAGR’s Board of Trustees (Board).
In
accordance with the IAGR Bylaws, nominations of new members to the Board may be
made by any member of IAGR, including current members of the Board. Such
nominations shall have a proposer and a seconder with no more than one being
from the same jurisdiction as the nominee. The Board is currently calling for
nominations to fill three vacancies to serve the term of office for
three years. If you wish to nominate a member to the Board, please complete the
attached nomination form and email it to Secretary Trude Felde at tfe@lotteritilsynet.no
no later than April 24, 2013.
A
special meeting via electronic means (as provided for under Section 4.3 of the
IAGR Bylaws) will then be convened and voting by jurisdictional members will
commence on May 24, 2013.
A
list of all nominees will be provided to you for consideration prior to the
electronic meeting. Please note the following in making your nominations:
1)
First and foremost, only nominate individuals who have indicated a willingness
to invest significant time and effort into being a trustee. These are working
positions of responsibility.
2) Ideally
Trustees attend both an annual Board of Trustees meeting held to coincide with
the annual conference and a mid-year meeting usually held in another part of
the world as well as participate in numerous email exchanges and multiple
conference calls. Those unable to attend the meetings in person are expected to
join by phone.
3)
Think about geographical and membership representation in making your
nominations. For example, does the individual you plan to nominate come from an
already substantially represented region?
4) In
order to make a nomination both you and the individual you are nominating must
be paid members of IAGR in good standing.
Excluding
office holders, the minimum representation of each region shall be at least one
member unless the region has not produced a nominee. The regions are defined as
follows:
Asia/Oceania
North
America (Canada/U.S./Mexico)
Europe
Africa
Central
America/Caribbean/South America
No
region shall have more than four members represented on the Board at one time.
The current
