The Club AGM will be held on 22nd January 2012 @ Llandaff Rugby and Athletic Club at 12 noon. Any current member can attend.
The Agenda can be found here along with the redrafted proposed constitution which forms the main business of this year's AGM.
Following publication of the original draft in December the document has been re-drafted following suggestions from a number of club members. The committee is grateful for this feedback and input.
Further amendments will only be considered at the AGM if submitted to the Secretary by 20 January 2012 – any members wishing to make suggestions can do so by e-mail karenandjohn7@btinternet.com or by speaking to the secretary or any member of the committee who will then pass this information to the secretary. This has to be done by 20 January 2012 at the latest.
The reasons for the proposed change is to provide a framework for the club (officers, committee members and all members in all categories) to operate within. The framework aims to conform to legislative requirements and reflect best practice with regard to issues such as equality as well as the increasing diversity of the club and its activities.
Because of the way the current constitution works, if members agree, we need to approve a new constitution at the AGM on 22 January 2012 and then hold a further meeting in March to elect a new committee using the structures described in the attached document. We are therefore suggesting that at the January AGM members consider extending the current committee to March.
The timetable is now:
- Papers for AGM including new constitution and proposal to extend committee membership to 11 March to be published by 13 January (Done);
- AGM 22 January where constitution to be considered for approval – amendments to be considered at the meeting if submitted to the Secretary by 20 January;
- GM to be held late March to elect officers and general members of the committee for terms office to the AGM in 2013 or 2014 as appropriate.
