The Royal Pharmaceutical Society (RPS) is seeking nominations for
four
members to serve on the Membership Committee and would like to invite you to put your name forward.
The Membership Committee is appointed by the Appointments Committee of the Assembly, and consists of a chair, vice chair and eight other members, of whom at least one will be a Fellow and the others will be Members of the Society. Members of the National Pharmacy Boards are eligible for appointment, but no member of the Committee will be a member of the Assembly of the Society.

- Implementing membership policy;

- Reviewing non-standard membership applications;
- Administering the Conduct Scheme, including assessing the validity of complaints.
The Committee reports to the Assembly through an annual report, usually submitted to the November Assembly meeting.
