VOTING
Voting as a Member Group of Landcare NSW – what does this mean?
Every Incorporated and unincorporated Member group who is a financial member of Landcare NSW is entitled to one vote at our AGM and SGM. This must be the Chair or the nominated representative of the group. See ‘who can vote’ below
What are my membership rights?
The Landcare NSW constitution allow members in the following categories the right to vote.
*Group Member – YES
Honorary Life Member – YES
Associate Member – NO
Individual Member – NO
Can I send a proxy instead?
No.
As outlined in the Constitution, Proxy voting must not be undertaken at or in respect of a general meeting. Therefore, a committee cannot delegate this to a coordinator or paid employee if they can’t attend the meeting.
See above for the AGM & SGM notice, agendas, 2021 minutes
Who can vote?
Group Member – Chair or Nominated Representative of a Group Member (‘Group’ does not include district networks)
Honorary Life Member – Current Life Members on our Honour Roll
I want to vote and have my say on behalf of my group. What should I do?
Please ensure you pre-register with your name, email and group you are voting on behalf on before Sunday 16th, and you will be sent a link in advance to cast your vote.
Advanced registration is required as Landcare NSW has engaged an external third party, True Vote to conduct the SGM vote and TrueVote will directly send you the information and links need to vote. This will be sent only to the nominated voter directly.
*’Groups’ do not include district networks. The Landcare NSW Constitution defines a District Network member as representing ‘two or more Landcare Member Groups’ – (iii) District Network Member (non-voting) – an incorporated body composed of two or more Landcare Member Groups (whether incorporated or unincorporated) that is recognised by the relevant Regional Body.
