Special General Meeting
Updated 11th November 2024
Tamar FM invites members to attend a Special General Meeting at the station, 29-67 Macquarie Street, George Town 7253, on Wednesday 20th November 2024 at 10:00 a.m. Some minor changes to the Constitution were approved at the AGM in September, however the ACMA has directed a further change as part of our licensing conditions. We wish to therefore make an additional change where the position of Vice President is optional, rather than mandatory, given the realities of running a Community radio station with a very small number of volunteers.
Proposed Constitution changes November 2024 can be seen here
In Summary, the key changes are:
- Section 8.0 The Management Committee
- Permit the Management Committee to decide if they require the position of Vice President to be filled. The current requirement cannot be met with limited volunteer numbers and the changes will enable greater flexibility in how the Management Committe is organised.
- Section 12. General Meetings.
- The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) has directed that the Constitution be changed so that the quorum for the Annual General Meeting shall be the number of Management Committee Members plus one.
