Abstract: The AGM will see the presentation of Annual Reports, election of office bearers and committee members, lucky door prize (one year's membership extension). After the AGM (anticipated to run for about one hour), there will be a light supper in the kitchen afterwards.
Further Details of the AGM: At the Annual General Meeting, reports from the President, Vice-Presidents and Treasurer are tabled. Award recipients are announced. The committee is dissolved and a new committee is elected. Committee nominations may be submitted on paper or by email but must be received by the Secretary by the due date (28 days before the AGM). Also note that 15 members who are Full Members or Life Members are needed for a quorum, so please join the meeting even if you don't wish to serve on the committee. Notice of the meeting is given in various issues of Universe and sent to members by email.
Procedures for the AGM
- 15 members who are Full Members or Life Members must be present in person and/or online to constitute a quorum. Where households have more than one member who is eligible to vote, if both/all members share a ZOOM connection, they will both/all count towards the quorum.
- There will be opportunities for questions when the reports are tabled. To minimise background noise, ZOOM participants are requested to keep their microphones on Mute unless asking a question. Questions will be taken from the floor using the usual custom of a raised hand.
- Contested positions will be voted upon using the Poll feature on the ASNSW's Member Jungle website. This is a secure online secret ballot system that guarantees that each member who is eligible to vote may vote only once in each poll.
- Members may vote in advance in the Polls for the contested positions.
