The Vice-Chancellor gives notice of an election of a member of the Board of Scrutiny in class (c)(ii), to serve until 30 September 1999 in place of Ms D. Lowther, who has vacated her place on the Board on being elected a member of the Finance Committee of the Council. Class (c)(ii) consists of members of the Regent House chosen without limit of age (subject to certain exclusions; see Statute A, VII, 4 (Statutes and Ordinances, p. 10)).
In order to be eligible, a candidate must be nominated on a paper sent to the Vice-Chancellor at the Old Schools so as to reach him not later than noon on Tuesday, 3 February 1998. The paper must contain (a) a statement signed by two members of the Regent House, nominating the candidate for election, (b) a statement signed by the candidate certifying that he or she consents to be so nominated, and (c) a curriculum vitae (see below).
The Vice-Chancellor would be obliged if nominations could be delivered direct to the Registrary's Clerk in the Old Schools during office hours.
