These Registrants needed to be included in Registrant elections.The formula produced the following distribution across the Institutions:The 3 largest Institutions (IEE + ICE + IMechE) with 52% of the total Registrants = 10 seats.The 9 medium-sized Institutions (CIBSE + IStructE + IMat + IMechIE + IEEIE + IChemE + BCS + IMarE +RAeS) with 31% of the total registrants = 10 seats.The small Institutions with 17% of the total registrants = 4 seats.© Engineering Council UK 2004
