Role of the Nominating Committee The Nominating Committee is charged with seeking and selecting the candidates for Council that they believe best demonstrate the qualities needed for strong leadership of the Association. The Nominating Committee consists of the immediate Past President (Chair), eight branch representatives, and three members-at-large appointed by Council. All candidates nominated by the Committee are scrutinized to determine that they have demonstrated high ethical standards and integrity in professional and personal dealings. These candidates must also express their understanding of APEGBC’s primary mandate, role and duty, which is to uphold and protect the public interest. Full details of the type of candidate characteristics assessed by the Committee can be found at: www. apeg.bc.ca/about/council/nominationcriteria.html. Under Bylaw 3(b) the committee nominates candidates for the office of President if they have served on Council for at least two full years prior to taking office, and for the office of Vice President, if they have served at least one year on Council prior to taking office. Further information on the role and responsibilities of the Nominating Committee can be found in the APEGBC Bylaws in Section 3. A copy of the bylaws is available online at www.apeg.bc.ca/resource/ publications/actbylawscode.html or can be obtained by contacting the APEGBC office. 2012 Nominating Committee Frank Denton PEng, Past President, Chair Branch Appointees Martin Fandrich PEng (Fraser Valley) Gary Lin PEng Horst Unger PEng
