If you are unable to participate in the AGM, you may nominate a Proxy subject to conditions outlined at Appointment of Proxy    

Our Constitution mandates that all Office-Bearer and general Committee positions be declared vacant at each AGM and nominations called from those Members who are eligible to stand for the Committee and vote at the AGM. 

We are calling for nominations for all Committee positions in advance of the AGM to give all Members the opportunity to nominate or seek further information on the various roles, responsibilities and time commitments involved.  Should more than one nomination be received for any position, a ballot will be conducted at the AGM.  

Judy Horman has given notice of her intent to step down from the position of Secretary at our upcoming AGM on July 26.  By that time Judy will have completed six years on the Committee, with the past two years as Secretary.  As a Registered Association with Consumer Affairs Victoria (CAV) we must appoint a new Secretary within 14 days of the position becoming vacant.

Members of IBM Quarter Century Club of Victoria may nominate for any Committee position ahead of the upcoming AGM even if they are unable to participate in the AGM.   They may also appoint another financial Member as their Proxy to vote on their behalf in any ballot to be conducted at the AGM.

Please consider your availability and  interest in serving on the Committee and submit your nomination now.
