2020 AGM Notice of Meeting

21 May 2020

AGM 2278

Calling all members.....

Your Trade Association needs your support to conduct an AGM this year.

The usual networking event with a guest speaker is not appropriate in the current social distancing environment, but members have the right to information on the running of their trade association and to vote on the Directors and Auditors.

Whilst the articles allow the circulation of the Notice of the AGM and the Report and Accounts by email and the website and members can vote by proxy, the meeting itself requires a quorum of members to attend in person.

A special resolution to amend the articles is proposed to allow future AGMs to be held electronically, but on this occasion a physical meeting still has to be planned for 11th June.

In the likely event that a quorum of members are not able to attend in person on 11th June, the AGM will be postponed to 2.30pm on 18th June, when the quorum requirement is removed, and members will be able to view it remotely and to vote.

A proxy voting form is attached and it would be appreciated if you used this to vote in advance of the meeting.

 

NOTICE is hereby given that the Annual General Meeting of Members will be held at Federation House, 10 Vyse Street, Birmingham, B18 6LT, on Thursday 11th June at 2.30pm.

For the purpose of:
