    Absolutely right, Random! Have a look at what I said:

    A “casting” vote is an additional vote given to the chair (or NOT, in this case) when a vote is tied (and only when a vote is tied).

    I'm talking generalities about a casting vote under other circumstances, hence the use of the words “NOT in this case”.

    What Is Majority was under the impression that if the chair cast a deciding vote, that was a casting vote.  Which it isn't.

    So yes, you're right, under Strata law in NSW it's one committee member one vote (proxies aside). I don't disagree with that at all.

    But there are committees in other areas of life that do have casting votes.  That's why I was trying to explain the difference to W.I.M.
