I don't know how "open" this selection is, or wheher there's already a preferred candidate, but Sally Mulready was on our shortlist prior to 05 and was very impressive, and is worth serious consideration.

I can't disagree with that.

 

One problem is that I think there are people on the shortlist who may get zero votes, I think there has to be a rethink over the form of positive action we use in shortlisting as I don't think the current 3 nominations rule really works and actually hinders women candidates as the "open" nomination tends to be seen as the 1st choice. To win a nomination outright you would first have to get nominated then win a majority vote not to have an open nomination which is more difficult.
