ABTA Board election results

ABTA today announced that Daniele Broccoli of Britaly travel is re-elected to the Board in the smaller Retail category.  Unsuccessful nominees were Doreen McKenzie of Knock Travel and Sandy Murray of Sandy Travel.  Broccoli has already served on the Board since April 2006.

“I’m over the moon at the faith being put in me by Agents, “commented Broccoli. “I won’t let them down and will be pleased to hear from any Agent with an issue they’d like me to take to the ABTA Board.”

Following the AGM on April 29, nominations for a new President will open when Justin Fleming will be stepping down after three years at the helm.  ABTA welcomes candidates for President, who must be proposed and seconded by current Board Members. Nominations for President will close on the 14th May.

Mark Tanzer commented, “I’m delighted to see such a strong interest in joining the Board from all sectors and areas in the country. The fact that more than a third of ABTA Members voted, demonstrates democracy in action and that ABTA truly is an association for our Members.”
