R-SPEC Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 i know i don't have a say in this... but shouldn't the position be handed out to the runner up since the winner has stepped down? why would you waste more time? seems like the fair thing to do thats all...

46n2 Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Question....and this may sound .....stupid.... but why exactly is this going to a vote when there were only 2 people nominated and seconded for the role at the AGM?

CrispyFries Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I imagine the process is laid out in the constitution, no idea where that is though Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/164075-position-vacant~-secretary/#findComment-3042958 Share on other sites More sharing options...
R31Nismoid Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 As its an Exec position. Without checking the constitution (cant till friday as i dont have a copy here)... I would be of the belief it requires an EGM (extraordinary gen meeting) to decide, as it requires a vote. That is the fair thing to do, being the rules are to be followed. It isnt about handing stuff out to people just "because" Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/164075-position-vacant~-secretary/#findComment-3042963 Share on other sites More sharing options...
