Dear members,
After seeing the AGM notice sent by DoG on January 31, 2025 and upon intense consultations with the Committee members an Extraordinary Committee meeting is scheduled at 14:00 after the Club competition on Tuesday, February 4th.
The Committee finds it unconstitutional that the Management interferes with the 2025 Committee nominations and wants to completely change the usual democratic and transparent process when the nominations’ sheets are posted in the Club for everyone to sign up and to see, which has been followed every year.
Moreover, each nomination must be proposed and seconded by at least two members, which is absolutely impossible under the proposed new system when members are asked to directly send their own nominations to an unknown email address.
The Notice is also incorrect in stating that “Nominations received will be formally announced on Monday, 17th February 2025 along with the election procedure and proxy voting details” as the election procedure and voting rights are clearly defined in the Club Constitution.
Kind regards,
Boris Zilbermints
Captain
