To all members of Labour International
Dear LI member,
You will shortly be receiving your ballot pack for the LICC elections.
This ballot is being undertaken by post therefore a timely response is required to ensure that your votes are included in the count.
Packs are being sent out from Wednesday 4 March 2009. If you have not received your ballot pack within two weeks of this date, please contact me directly on Melanie_onn@new.labour.org.uk or by phone on 020 7783 1220.
The Committee will be a six person committee, of which three must be women. It will be elected for a two year term of office with a maximum of two members to be elected from any one country.
Voting will be by a single round transferable preferential vote. You should vote in order of preference for the nominees on the ballot paper. The candidate with the least first preference votes will be eliminated and their votes redistributed on second preferences (or in later rounds highest preference still left in the ballot), and so on until all candidates have been ranked in order.
Having established the order in which all nominees have finished the highest six nominees, subject to the overriding requirement for at least three women being elected and no more than two members from any one country being elected, will be deemed elected.
Further explanation of the voting process will be provided with your ballot paper mailing.
The deadline for return of ballots will be 5pm on Tuesday 14 April.
If you have any queries, please contact me on 020 7783 1220 or by email Melanie_onn@new.labour.org.uk
Yours sincerely,
Melanie Onn
Head of Compliance Unit
