DETAILS OF SPECIAL RESOLUTION PROPOSED FOR THE 2016 AGM BACKGROUND TO PROPOSED CHANGES TO MLTAV WORKING RULES The MLTAV Committee endorsed a move to a new model for a limited leadership commitment in the Presidency role of the organisation totaling 5 years, comprising President-Elect for one (1) year, automatically followed by three (3) years as President, followed automatically by one (1) year as Immediate Past-President, for the following reasons:
The MLTAV Committee, therefore, proposes a Special Resolution at the 2016 AGM, to make the following changes to four pages in its current Rules, (for transparency and clarity, proposed changes are shown on affected pages - 15, 16, 18 & 19 - of MLTAV’s Rules, using track changes). Click below on each of these pages to view the Proposed Changes: PROCESS TO CHANGE MLTAV RULES via Special Resolution at the Annual General Meeting
Members are invited to provide comments / feedback to the proposed Special Resolution detailed on pages 2-7 of this newsletter. Any comments / feedback MUST be emailed to the MLTAV Office, This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it prior to 21 November. All comments will be taken into consideration before a proposal to change the Rules is put to the vote at the AGM on 6 December.
It will be assumed [at the AGM] that all members in attendance are aware of the details of the proposed resolution and the intention of the MLTAV Committee to propose the resolution as a special resolution. This will ensure we can move immediately to a vote, rather than spend time on a lengthy discussion. In conducting the vote for the Special Resolution at the AGM, the MLTAV Committee MUST ENSURE the following MLTAV Rules are adhered to: Rule Number 35 (2) [General Meeting Quorum] states, ‘The quorum for a general meeting is the presence (physically, by proxy or as allowed under Rule 34) of twenty (20) of the members entitled to vote.’ Rule Number 38 [Special Resolution] within the MLTAV’s Rules states, ‘A special resolution is passed if not less than three quarters of the members voting at a general meeting (whether in person or by proxy) vote in favour of the resolution.’ In the event of this Special Resolution being successfully passed, the amended Rules do not come into effect until they are submitted to, and approved by, Consumer Affairs i.e. planned for 2018.
