The election is expected to take place in March, when the PEC is next scheduled to meet. It has been triggered by a vote by PEC members that has removed the previous incumbent, Martin Fallowfield, from the Chair. Fallowfield remains an elected member of the committee.
Until a new chair has been elected, the BDA will be led by the current deputy chair of the PEC, Robert Kinloch. Kinloch is a general dental practitioner in Scotland.
Details of the members of the PEC are available on the governance pages of the Association’s website.
