Nominations for Executive Committee
Nominations are called for election to the Executive Committee prior to the
AGM. Nominations must be by two members of the society and must be sent in
writing to the secretary.
Guests
Members are reminded that your are welcome to bring guests to any of the
dinner meetings, especially if they are interested in becoming a member of the
Society. A dinner fee of $80 per guest is payable. Please advise the secretary
prior to the meeting if you intend to invite a guest. The dinner fee can
be deducted from the membership fee if the guest joins the Society.
New Members
The Committee is keen to encourage the introduction of new members to the
Society. To this end, the Committee proposes a reduced membership fee for the
first year of membership. We propose to set the standard membership for
this year at $300, with the fee for first year members at $200. The rules of the
Society state that the object of the Society shall be the promotion of medico
legal knowledge in all its aspects. Membership of the Society is open to
"qualified members of the legal and medical professions, and
of such other
persons as may be interested in medico legal work".
We encourage all members to think about potential new members. Candidates for
membership should be proposed and seconded in writing by members of the Society.
Nominations can be sent to the secretary.
Speakers Programme
The engagement of speakers always requires a good deal
of thought and preparation on the part of the Committee. The Committee is
mindful of the need to engage speakers who are not only interesting and
entertaining, but who are also able to contribute to intellectual discourse on
issues which are important to the Society's members. The Committee would be
pleased to receive any suggestions from members for future speakers. Please email Stewart Germann:secretary@germann.co.nz
