click it for next step
STEP 1 SOFT OPTION
Click to see first draft of this Special Resolution
SPECIAL RESOLUTION NO 1-
Remove Clause 40 from the E.A. Constitution
Click to read the official complaint
IF / WHEN the State Branches block the SPECIAL RESOLUTION 1 / E.A. refuses tabling the resolution at the AGM / SGM:
OFFICIAL COMPLAINT AGAINST THE BRANCHES WHO SUPPORT CLAUSE 40 AND THE E.A. BOARD FOR ALLOWING CLAUSE 40 TO PERSIST-
Call on the E.A. Board remove Clause 40 and sanction those State Branches who voted ( Special Resolution 1) to retain clause 40
THEN LATER - MULTIPLE MOTIONS + + +EXPEL THE BOARD
As required to initiate full Constitutional Re-Write, reform and restructure
IF SUCCESSFUL - SHOULD RESULT IN A REFORMED E.A.
Read the Official Complaint, the E.A. Board should have, in my lay-persons opinion, an impossible task to deny these infractions and not act accordingly. If Clause 40 still exists after the dust settles, then move on to step 2. This step comes with a large range of problems because of the E.A. Constitution, these problems are identified in my comprehensive research. IMO it would probably be easier to move to step 3 and start a whole new organisation.
STEP 2 REMOVE THE E.A. BOARD
MOTIONS - 1 to 9 ( 1 motion per director)
The Members remove each director of E.A. in the manner prescribed by the E.A. Constitution 25 :25.1f and the Corporations Act Division 3 - 203D (naming each director (9) individually i.e. 9 motions)
Referencing the E.A. Constitution & Corporations Act
Multiple tricky issues regarding the Corporations Act and E.A. Constitution makes it virtually impossible for members to vote in a member friendly board - Main issues are: Clause 40, Constitutionally number of directors required to keep EA running = 4, the right of these directors to appoint other directors, the Nominations Committee. The potential to a perpetual cascade of non member friendly directors aided by the E.A. Constitution and Corporations Act. Read the extensive research
Removing the directors is the easiest part, getting a member focused board will be extremely difficult.
SPECIAL RESOLUTION NO 1- (Try again)
Remove Clause 40 from the E.A. Constitution
CONSTITUTIONAL REFORMS FROM STEP 1
Special resolutions in Step 1 -
IF SUCCESSFUL - SHOULD RESULT IN A REFORMED E.A.
STEP 3 HARD LINE- SERIOUS
ACTIONS ONLY - A NEW ORGANISATION
NO MOTIONS TO E.A. REQUIRED
The State Branch members stop paying their memberships to their State Branches on their renewal dates in a coordinated action.
PREPARATION COMPLETED
A new organisation functional and ready to take over equestrian sport administration in Australia. Functional enough to allow competitions to commence under their jurisdiction.
PLEASE CONSIDER THIS OPTION - Reasons
Before you completely discard this option, take time to read how it could be executed as smoothly as possible with replacement services, competitions, policies and affiliations in place, a new organisation in place that is controlled by the members.
