Nominations Committee

The role of the Nominations Committee is to recommend candidates for external membership of Council, and to keep under review the criteria for the selection and election of members. The committee also makes recommendations regarding the re-nomination of external members. The committee’s recommendations go to Council, who then make proposals to Congregation for the appointment of new external members.
