Mr Robert Grieves has informed the club that he wishes to withdraw his candidacy for the post of associate governor in the election to the 2017/18 board of governors. As the ballots for the election had already been printed at the time this notification was received and as reprinting would not allow the ballots to be distributed to members within the schedule required by the articles of association, Mr Grieves’ name remains on the ballot for associate governor.
