Key words are in my original posting.
A member at the time of the meeting.
Reading through the thread I see that George criticised me for not disclosing to whom I sent a private mail.
Key word here is private.
A private e mail with full details disclosed on the notice board would be oxymoronic
Overall I was not alleging any underhand business I was trying to ensure that this kind of mistake does not happen again. At the time of the meeting (a Tuesday morning during the Scottish) Andy was overworked and the second checker also failed to look for current membership.
After all the publicity here. This problem, I contend, will not happen again.
I expect Jim will consider this issue when writing the operating procedures
Just imagine the constitutional crisis you would have now if any of the votes had been really close.
All the proxy voters listed at the SGM were current members of CS at the time of the meeting (July 14th) as they are now on the most updated list (July 14th) except for one which is probably a voting parent.
No mistakes were made and everything was completely in order.
