Upcoming calls for nominations 2023 
Calls for nominations may be made for the following roles depending on ministerial direction. These boards have a minimum and maximum 
membership at the Minister’s discretion. These boards may carry vacancies if the Minister chooses not to appoint to the maximum number of 
members. Therefore, we may or may not advertise these positions this year as the boards can operate without these roles being fil ed.
