The pro bono contribution of Fellows has been and continues to be the College’s most valued asset and resource. We are grateful for their commitment and are also grateful to the voting Fellows (22.39 per cent) who demonstrated their engagement with the governance of the College.
The results of the 2021 elections to RACS Council will be tabled at our Annual General Meeting in Brisbane on Thursday 5 May 2022, when newly elected Councillors take office. Congratulations to the successful candidates and sincere thanks to all candidates who nominated.
