Section 3: Conflict of Interest

It is essential that the Academy maintains confidence in the integrity of its electoral process. In considering new Candidates for election, Fellows of the Academy rely on impartial advice being provided by independent referees. Assessors are therefore asked to declare any private or professional interests or relationships that could or could be seen to influence the advice they are providing.

I certify that, to the best of my knowledge, I have no private or professional interests or relationships that could present a conflict with the proper performance of my role as independent Assessor of this Candidate for election to the Academy.
