The ballot papers have already been dispatched to the address of each nurse currently on the register/roll.  A nurse may only vote for members that are in the same category i.e. a registered nurse may only vote for 12 registered nurses, an enrolled nurse may only vote for 3 enrolled nurses, and an enrolled nursing auxiliary may only vote for 3 enrolled nursing auxiliaries.

The closing date for the submission of ballot papers is 16 May 2003.  If a nurse has not received a ballot paper or has spoilt the ballot paper, he/she may request a ballot paper by contacting the Returning Officer at the Council.  Such a request must be in writing stating the reasons why a ballot paper is requested.
