Candidates must contact the independent Returning Officer in order to receive a Nominations Pack. This Pack will contain all the required information which the candidate needs to complete to be eligible for nomination. The Nomination Pack must be received by the Returning Officer by 12 noon Wednesday 22nd December.
The Returning Officer will undertake a preliminary check on completeness of the potential candidates’ information and will then forward it to the Nominations Committee of the Noongar Boodja Trust, which will undertake a vetting process against the eligibility criteria for Member Elected Directors as outlined in the SWALSC Rule Book.
National Police Certificate (NPC):
Candidate nominations must include an acceptable NPC which is no more than 12 months old at the time of close of nominations. Acceptable NPCs are issued by the WA Police (or other applicable state police) and can take 2-3 weeks from application. Application forms for an NPC can be obtained from a participating Australia Post outlet, OR online at:
