The officers of each Working Party consist of a Chair and a Secretary. The Chair of each Working Party is elected by the member centres of the EBMT. Voting takes place at the Annual General Meeting and each centre is allowed to submit one vote, irrespective of the number of individual members nominated by that centre or by the transplant activity of that centre. Each Chair is elected for three years and may be re-elected for a further three years maximum.
Within the organisation of each individual Working Party, the Chair will nominate a Secretary. The Secretary will normally serve the Working Party for the duration of the Chairmanship and may be re-elected indefinitely if the incoming Chair agrees.
Other officers of the Working Party, e.g., Chairs of sub-committees, writing committees, study co-ordinator etc. may be deemed necessary by the Chair at any time.
Each Working Party will hold meetings at least twice a year, one of
which may be held at the Annual Meeting of the EBMT. Minutes of each
meeting will be recorded, kept by the Working Party Secretary, and submitted
to the EBMT Secretary as a permanent record of the Working Party's activities.
