You could also call this:

"Choosing the first people to be in charge of a new alcohol licensing trust in your area"

When a licensing trust is set up under section 300, you need to hold the first election of members on a specific day. This day is chosen by the Order in Council that establishes the trust. The election is run by the electoral officer of the local council where the trust is based.

The electoral officer is in charge of the election for the licensing trust. This person is already the electoral officer for the local territorial authority. They will oversee the election of members for the trust.
