On
2 December 2002 all members of the 5 participating organisations
will have the opportunity to vote for the creation of the Spatial
Sciences Institute. In this ballot posted to you by the SSI you
will be asked to answer the following question:
Do
you agree that the national institute/institution/association to
which you
belong (ISA / MSIA / IEMSA / RSPAA / AURISA) should wind up and
transfer its
members and assets to the new institute?
Terry
Watkinson, Past IS-NSW President, NSW representative to SSI , &
Federal Councillor from NSW Division of ISA
Bob
Harrison, President of IS-NSW
Phil
Hayward, President of ISA, representing ISA's view
Will
be speaking at this meeting to give you all the facts.
At
the meeting we will be asking for a show of hands to gauge members
support for the winding up of ISA & IS-NSW, transfer of assets
& creation of SSI.
Note
that there will be no more opportunites "for more information".
What is now available is it. On the 2nd December will be the final
vote. The votes close by 31 December. You may be returning from
holidays to find the Institution of Surveyors is no more.

Board
Second
vote: Should IS-NSW withdraw from ISA?
At
the last vote to the general question "Should we amalgamate"
only 353 replied, and 266 members said 'Yes'. This represents a
very small proportion of members. If there is a similar vote to
the final proposal in December the merger will go ahead.
The
Division Committee has given the SSI proposals a great deal of consideration
and is leaning towards splitting from ISA. We seek your views
on this issue.
Third
vote: Should the Cumberland Group committee be given the authority
to apply to become an incorporated association to protect itself
from the SSI proposal, if the winding up of the Institution becomes
inevitable?
