The Elections Committee will verify the eligibility of anyone who wishes to be a candidate or to vote in the elections by checking their membership status as of 31 January 2021. 

If a person appears to be ineligible or cannot be verified to be eligible, then the person’s eligibility will be treated as “challenged”.

Where someone’s eligibility is challenged, the Elections Committee will seek a statement from the person in question about all relevant facts relating to their eligibility.

Any person who serves on the Elections Committee in 2021 is ineligible to be a nominee for Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary, Treasurer, DPCA Voting and Non Voting Representatives, or the Executive Committee.

However, members of the Elections Committee can be nominated as candidates for the Council. 

Election Committee members can vote in the elections alongside the membership.
