Notice on Voting at the Annual General Meeting

The ACS is regulated by Access Canberra under the Associations Incorporations Act 1991 (ACT), and this law requires us to hold a Face-to-Face Annual General Meetings with voting from those physically present, together with proxy votes. Currently, the ACS Rules do not permit online voting. This would require a constitutional change that Management Committee are considering proposing in 2027.

If you are unable to physically attend the meeting and want your vote recorded, we encourage you to submit a proxy vote.

 

Appointing a Proxy:

If you cannot attend, you are entitled to appoint another eligible member to vote on your behalf. Submit an Appointment of Proxy Form by:

  • post to Governance, ACS, PO Box Q534, QVB, SYDNEY NSW 1230

ensuring it is received by ACS no later than 72 hours prior to the AGM commencement.

 

Who is eligible to vote:

All financial members, other than members of Overseas Group, Students, Honorary Fellows and Honorary Members (who were not members before classification as an Honorary Member) are entitled to attend and vote at general meetings of the Society. A member may not vote at any general meeting of the Society unless all monies payable by that member (and their proxy), to the Society, have been paid.

 

Proposed Changes to the National Regulations

Members will be aware that there have been proposed changes to the National Regulations. Please be advised that these changes are not for discussion at the AGM.
