An Election for Directors will be held
The Constitution of the WIRELESS INSTITUTE OF AUSTRALIA (WIA) in Clause 14 specifies the way in which Directors of the WIA are to be elected to that position.
Four directors retire at the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting which will be held in Bendigo in May 2025, namely Scott Williams VK3KJ, Peter Clee VK8ZZ, Giles Kirby VK5GK and Peter Schrader VK4EA. Each retiring director is eligible for re-election.
A call for nominations for the position of Director of the WIA was made in November 2024, in the WIA National News Broadcast and in Amateur Radio Magazine in accordance with the Election Regulations.
I advise that I have received Five (5) valid nominations from WIA members for the position as director of the WIA by the advertised closing date for nominations, as follows:-
 Giles Kirby VK5GK
Klaus Illhardt VK3IU
Peter Clee VK8ZZ
Peter Schrader VK4EA
Scott Williams VK3KJ
As advised in the Call for Nominations there will be four (4) vacancies at the conclusion of the AGM to be held in May 2025 and therefore an election by ballot will be necessary. This Election will be held by electronic ballot with an option for a postal vote as provided for in the WIA Election Regulations.
Members could elect to vote by postal ballot. An election to vote by postal ballot will close on 24th December 2024.
Details of the election timetable and the Bio of the nominees will be sent to all members by email. Details of Nominees will also be included with the postal voting papers sent to those members opting for a postal vote. Details will also be published in January / February Edition of Amateur Radio Magazine.
The electronic and postal ballot will commence on 1 February 2025 and will close on 28 February 2025.
The formal declaration of the election will be announced at the WIA Annual General Meeting to be held in May 2025.
This is notice is authorised by Pete Cherry VK2LP, WIA Returning Officer on 1st January 2025
