As a result the current Board will step down in November 2008 and will be replaced by a new smaller Executive Board who will have overall responsibility for the administration and operation of the Association and fulfil the necessary legal duties. </p><p>The Advisory Council, which will elect the new Board, will focus on the strategic issues facing DMA members and the direct marketing industry and will co-ordinate a number of sub groups looking at these specific issues. </p><p>All senior DMA members are eligible and encouraged to stand for the Advisory Council and the DMA has sent out nomination papers to all the electoral classification groups. There is one vacancy in each of the electoral classification groups, apart from the client group where there are 10 vacancies. The deadline for nominations and requests for changes of electoral classification groups is Friday 29 August 2008.</p>]]></description></item></channel></rss>
