See last AGM preparation page for some failed resolutions that could be updated.

$/!\$ NOTE: $/!\$

There is a difficulty in proposing special resolutions to change the rules for this and future upcoming GMs.

Because the Associations Act 2009 is now in effect, the current set of rules are deemed by OFT to be in compliance with the Act. So we need do nothing right now.

However, any attempt to submit new rules will be rejected unless the new rules are in fact in compliance with the Act.
