KembaraXtra – Legal Terms – Nomination
The term nomination has several legal meanings depending on the context.
Firstly, it refers to the act of naming or appointing a person for a position, office, or as a candidate in parliamentary or local-government elections.
Secondly, in the context of friendly societies, it refers to the written appointment made by a member naming a person who will receive the member’s interest in the society upon the member’s death without the need for a formal will.
To make such a nomination, the member must generally be at least sixteen years old, and the nomination may be revoked at any time by the member.
In addition, such a nomination is automatically revoked upon the member’s marriage unless otherwise provided.
