The only record I found of the "grandparent" rule vote was at a Council meeting in Jan 2014 where it was included in the minutes as a Discussion item.
There was a vote at the end of the discussion.
However this was a council matter and has never been referred to an AGM for ratification or to be included in the constitution.
As things stand the current Selection Procedure is unchanged, however there would a need to turn this selection criteria into a formal Operating Procedure (I think).

Quote:"There was a vote which by 6-5 said grandparent was not sufficient link to make you eligible to represent Scotland. The reason why a vote was forced here was the proximity of the 2014 Olympiad at which Turner would have been selected on strength."
