ICS policy on campaigning

Campaigning for ICS elected positions is not permitted by applicants or members. Any campaigning, be it positive or negative, will result in the disqualification of the candidate. The Board of Trustees’ judgement will be final in determining whether a candidate has engaged in positive or negative campaigning. Negative campaigning is not permitted by any candidate or ICS member and will be considered a violation of the ICS Code of Conduct. This policy is in effect at all times and for any position.

The ICS Board of Trustees will identify their preferred candidates and the application forms for these will be circulated by the ICS office for all members to review and confirm at the AGM.
I hereby confirm that I have completed my disclosure form/declaration of interest via my membership record on the ICS website, that I have read and understood the ICS Articles, and Bylaws, and the ICS Code of Conduct and agree to abide by these.   If elected I understand what would be required of me to undertake an ICS position, and that I would accept the position. I also note that I am unable to canvass for my election to this post. In addition, I confirm that I am an upstanding member of the ICS and can confirm that I am not the subject of any disciplinary investigations, internal or external to my workplace.
