If there are more candidates than there are vacant positions, members will vote by ballot. If not, members will vote by a show of hands. Only financial members can participate in the vote. Candidates with the most votes over 50% of the vote win the respective position.
At the commencement of the AGM should there be an insufficient number of candidates nominated to fill all positions; nominations may be taken from the floor of the meeting. In those circumstances those persons nominated must also receive 50% of the vote in order to be elected to the Board of Management.
