The members of the Board of Directors must meet the character and professionalism requirements contemplated by applicable statute or regulation.
The Board of Directors shall be elected from candidate slates in which candidates are sequentially numbered, and moreover in which at least two candidates appear. Each list shall include enough candidates of the under-represented gender to ensure gender balancing at or above statutory / regulatory levels (i.e. at least 2/5 of all candidates presented, with any non-whole number rounded up). Lists which feature a candidate slate of fewer than three candidates are exempt from this requirement.
