RCGP Seeks Nominations for President and College Council
28th January
2009
The RCGP is now looking for nominations for
its next president and six College Council Members for the period
2009-2012.
Current President Professor David Haslam will
complete his term of office at the Annual General Meeting on Friday
20th November 2009, and nominations are now being sought
for the next three years. College Members may propose another for
election, and all presidential nominations must be signed by twelve
Members in good standing.
The AGM will also mark the retirement of six
nationally-elected College Council members. Six new Members are
therefore being sought to serve on the Council for 2009 -
2012. Any Fellow or Member of the College may propose another
for election to one of the six vacancies.

Candidates will be informed of the results in the week before the
June Meeting of Council on 13th June 2009. The result will
then be announced at the June Meeting and published in the
British Journal of General Practice.
