Re: Royal Charter Petition
In December 2008, at the instruction of Council of Management, a petition was submitted to the Privy Council seeking Her Majesty’s pleasure in granting a Royal Charter to the Institution.
Last Friday, 20th March 2009, the following message was received from the clerk to the Privy Council:
At the Privy Council meeting on 18th March, Her Majesty approved an Order approving the draft ICES Charter and ordering the Lord Chancellor to pass it under the Great Seal.
Whilst there remain a number of steps before the sealed Charter is received by the Institution, which may take a number of months to complete, I have been advised that these are merely procedural and that the grant of the Charter is now confirmed.
It is therefore with great pleasure that I can advise that at the earliest juncture following the completion of the remaining process, the ICES will move to re-launching itself as:
The Chartered Institution of Civil Engineering Surveyors
Further details will be made available in due course.
Yours faithfully
