Abstract: Abstract This chapter examines the fourth and last merger attempt, which was mounted by the Society and the Institute in 1998, in a relatively brief time after the third merger attempt. From the commencement of initial discussions about a merger, which took place between the presidents of the two bodies, to the point of the merger vote, the period was the shortest among all four merger attempts. Similar to the first three merger attempts, the fourth merger attempt failed because of insufficient support from Institute members.
