Greetings PDF Voting Delegates

With reference to the subject of this email, and after consulting our election Scrutineer, Ms. Rose Wilkinson and the PDF Board last week and first few days of this week, I wish to draw to your attention that I received no valid nomination for the 1 remaining vacant Board position and one valid nomination for the male Co-Chairperson position by close of the extended call for nominations on Friday, 16 June 2017 at 5:00pm Fiji time. The valid nomination for the male Co-Chairperson position was for Mr. Simon Dolaiano of PWD Solomon Islands.

AS we were not able to fill all vacant Board positions by end of nomination period on Friday, 16 June 2017, the Board has approved an additional extension to the call for nominations which will now end on this coming Friday, 30 June 2017 at 5:00pm Fiji time. PLEASE NOTE that there will be no further extension to this year’s Board election and strongly encourage all voting delegates to PLEASE EXERCISE your constitutional function in nominating, seconding and if need be voting for the remaining 1 Board member position before the deadline this Friday.

KINDLY NOTE that this extended call for nominations will only be for 1 remaining Board position.

To assist you in determining as to who is available for nomination for the 1 remaining Board position from the current voting delegates in this email group/list, it might be helpful for me to share that Ms. Sovaia Coalala from Fiji, Ms. Tewai Halatau from New Zealand, Ms. Ipul Powaseu from Papua New Guinea and Mr Simon Dolaiano from Solomon Islands will become members of the new PDF Board effective August 2017 along with Mr. Kyle Miers from Australia, Mr. Richard Fournier from New Caledonia, Ms. Faaolo Utumapu-Utailesolo from Samoa and female Co-Chairperson Ms. Nelly Caleb from Vanuatu who are continuing members of the Board. Therefore, you may wish to nominate a candidate for the remaining 1 Board position from within this voting delegate list and is also from another country not already included in the new Board I have just mentioned.

THEREFORE, THE CALL FOR NOMINATIONS FOR 1 BOARD MEMBER POSITION IS NOW OPEN! DO TAKE NOTE OF THE DEADLINE THIS FRIDAY, 30 JUNE 2017 AT 5:00PM FIJI TIME.

And if you are nominated by a voting delegate, and this nomination is seconded by another voting delegate, do make sure you indicate to all voting delegates in this email group/list that you accept this nomination and complete the attached candidate profile form and send it to me as Returning Officer on this same email group/list.

Sincerely

Seta
