NOMINATIONS are now being taken for the positions of NFU Scotland’s president and two vice-presidents.
The election for these key appointments within Scottish agriculture will take place at the union’s meeting at the Radisson Blu Hotel, Glasgow, on Tuesday February 7, 2017. The union’s AGM and annual dinner will be staged at the same venue the day before.
Any NFUS member can be nominated for election, providing they are proposed and seconded by fellow NFUS members. The presidential position is held for two years and a president can serve a maximum of two consecutive two-year terms. Those elected vice-president will initially serve for two years before the post reverts to an annual election.
