Procedures

Steering committee members are elected every two years at the TCGN annual business meeting. The current steering committee shall nominate a slate of candidates which will typically be:

• current vice-chair to become chair
• current secretary to become chair

Nominations from the membership of the TCGN will also be accepted, either at the TCGN business meeting or in advance by email. Chairs that wish to remain active shall become standing members of the steering committee.

We need to establish online procedures for election in conjunction with TCCC
Suggestions on implementation are welcome.
