The updated rules also require to be published for all to see.

If it does then that's ridiculous - give the tournament director more leeway and get rid of pointless red tape.No it doesn't have to go to an AGM. The rules are at the discretion of the Home Director and available on the CS website. The AGM is a last resort, and you would need much wider support from the membership, to recommend a rule change.
