Electing the future leadership of PSA matters

4 April 2023

 

Voting is now open for the Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) Branch Committee elections. The high number of nominations received from PSA members has meant that all Branch Committees will go to election in 2023, with all eligible voters having received voting instructions today.

 

PSA Chief Executive Officer Mark Kinsela encouraged all PSA members to vote for the future leadership of 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,” Mr 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.”

 

Australia’s leading voting and election provider CorpVote has been appointed to manage the election process.

 

Voting is open from midday today (4 April 2022), and will close at 11.59pm AEST on Monday 1 May 2023.

 

Successfully elected Branch Committee members will be announced on Wednesday 3 May 2023, and will serve a three-year term from 1 July 2023 to 30 June 2026.
