The Central Executive Council Finance & General Purposes Committee met on Tuesday, 31 March 2026 in accordance with the rules and by-laws for this election.
The Committee was satisfied that GARY IAN SMITH was the only nominee who had complied with rule 15.3 and the by-laws for this election.
The Committee was therefore satisfied that in accordance with by-law 28, GARY IAN SMITH should be declared elected unopposed to the office of General Secretary & Treasurer.
The Committee accordingly instructed me, as National Returning Officer to request CIVICA Election Services, the Independent Scrutineer to issue the appropriate report.
I attach the relevant report from the Independent Scrutineer.
