ADDENDUM TO DETAILED AGENDA (07 JUNE 2017)
Following 01 June 2017 release of the Council Agenda, a revised Council Agenda Book

(ChemRAWN) and Weir, Prof. Ron (ICTNS) was added.
Item 4. Election of Officers and Members of Bureau
*Prof. Christopher M. A. Brett (Portugal) term is 2016-2019 and will continue as Elected

Referenced Paragraphs from B2.2.2.2

The officers of the Union and the Elected Members of the Bureau, as defined by the Statutes, shall be
elected at a regular meeting of the Council by a written and secret ballot, a simple majority of the votes
recorded being required for election. The election for each officer shall be held separately. If no
nominee receives a majority on the first ballot, the nominee receiving the smallest number of votes shall
be eliminated from the next ballot and successive ballots shall be held until a nominee receives a simple
majority of the votes recorded or there are only two nominees on which to vote. If two nominees get an
equal number of votes, the Presiding Officer, after consultation with the Executive Committee, shall cast
the deciding vote.

For election of Elected Members of the Bureau, the nominees receiving the highest number of votes
shall be elected to the vacancies, provided that the number of votes cast for each such nominee shall be a
majority of the total votes cast per vacancy. If fewer nominees than the vacancies receive a majority of
such votes cast, then those receiving a majority shall be declared elected and a second ballot conducted
among the remaining nominees for the remaining vacancies. If, in this second ballot, no nominee
receives a majority, the nominee receiving the smallest number of votes shall be eliminated from the
next ballot and successive ballots conducted until all vacancies are filled. In each ballot, the number of
names on ballot papers submitted by each Delegation shall be no more and no less than the number of
vacancies outstanding at the conclusion of the previous ballot.
