Council has decided that nominations should show for each signatory the name and faculty, sub-faculty, or department (indicative of the relevant electorate) in block capitals. Any names which are not so shown may not be published. At least one nomination in respect of each nominee, signed by the nominee and four nominators, must be on an official nomination form.

In the event of a contested election, a brief biographical notice of each candidate will be published in the Gazette dated 22 February, and voters may wish to wait until they have read these before returning their ballot papers, which will be sent out to members of the electorate as soon as possible after the closing date for nominations, and which, after completion, must be received by the Elections Office not later than 4 p.m. on Thursday, 8 March.
