VOTING is now open for the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) branch committee elections.
The high number of nominations said to have been received from PSA members means that all branch committees will go to election with all eligible voters receiving voting instructions today.
Outgoing PSA CEO Mark Kinsela (PD 19 Dec 2022) (pictured) encouraged all PSA members to vote for the future leadership of the PSA.
"Branch committees serve an important purpose for the PSA, from appointing the PSA Board, providing input and advice on local policy issues affecting pharmacists, and fighting for every pharmacist across your state or territory," Kinsela said.
"Electing members to serve on branch committees gives members the opportunity to have their voices heard, and to affect the future of the entire profession.
"I encourage all PSA members to engage with the election process - reach out to your branch committee candidates and make sure your vote counts."
Voting and election provider CorpVote has been appointed to manage the election process.
Voting is open from midday today and will close at 11.59pm AEST on Mon 01 May.
Successfully elected branch committee members will be announced on Wed 03 May, and will serve a three-year term from 01 Jul 2023 to 30 Jun 2026.
