Talk:Meetings/2009 AGM/Resolutions

It might be best if the rules mentioned are adopted at the AGM, rather than by the Board prior to the AGM. It was also suggested at some point that we have a rule saying that the board can't change rules set by Ordinary Resolution - I think we should at a resolution to that effect as well. That would then prevent the board from being able to change the rules about board elections (which they shouldn't be able to do - there is an obvious conflict of interest). --Tango 21:45, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

The rules have to be adopted by the Board - to start with at least - because otherwise we wouldn't be able to hold elections or admit members! The Articles that were adopted in the end meant that Rules can be adopted by either the Board or the members. Unfortunately it does mean a rule adopted by the members can be changed by the directors; the only way to "entrench" the rules is to put it as a Special Resolution restricting the powers of the Board.
