EGM

[David Deary]

History: The SC was set up by an overwhelming majority at the AGM of 2009 – in what way is that ‘dictating’? The proposals had previously been discussed at length at Council. It is true that since then ACA have proposed amendments, but it is hardly true to say that CS (the Board?, the AGM?) has been ‘stalling’. Had the ACA motion been passed at the last AGM then ACA would have been responsible for setting up its own PVG arrangements – no simple task. See also Trevor’s comments.

Hi Ken, how many people actually attended the AGM of 2009? How much time was afforded to Leagues and Associations to consider this proposal in 2009 and give their feedback prior to the AGM? How many proxy votes were used to pass this? An overwhelming majority out of 40 people is hardly consensus is it? Its closer to a dictatorship. Also in reading the minutes I note an overwhelming majority how is that determined - 25 votes to 15 votes? Actual physical number of votes should be counted at the AGM as opposed to overwhelming defeated or passed with 40 people it wouldn't have taken long at all.

I will post in more detail later as I dispute almost every point you have made but I would be in interested in your answers to the above questions.

Edit to add:
Also, Ken just out of curiosity when was our last audit by the Scottish Government and what were the findings as I cannot find anyting relating to such an audit? This seems at odds with your comments.

Also can you provide the correspondance from the Scottish Government highlighting as you alluded to that they wouldn't be happy with leagues where they have their own codes administering their own standards? I don't think such correspondance exists and if it does I am unaware of it (in past experience as a trustee of a charity). I would genuinely be interested to see it.

Moreover, if this is such an issue for the Scottish Goverment I am surprised there seems to be little evidence showing that CS has collaborated with the Scottish Government in the creation of the code.
