UK - The Professional Lighting and Sound Association (PLASA) has invited nominations from its Full UK Members for three places on its executive committee, the body that provides strategic direction to the Association.

The nine members of the executive committee play a critical role in driving the numerous initiatives undertaken by the Association. Industry certification schemes, a Manufacturers Forum, a major membership restructure and maximizing opportunities related to the Olympics are just a few of the projects currently in discussion.

Committee members come from all sectors of the industry, but have in common a determination to develop and shape the strategic direction of the Association, helping to create a positive business environment for the membership.

Matthew Griffiths, chief executive of PLASA, commented: "It's always encouraging to see interest in the future of the Association reflected in the number of nominations received. We appreciate that individuals are making a significant commitment to PLASA - representing both time and effort away from their own companies - but everyone that becomes involved makes a substantial difference."

The committee meets 12 times a year, usually in London, and members may also be invited to join or chair advisory groups. Nominations close on Tuesday 15 November with the election papers, including a 200-word résumé on each candidate, mailed to all Full Members of the Association on Friday 18 November.
