Thank for the update Whale. I agree with Jimmy’s stance that you would still require a proxy form appointing someone physically attending the meeting for the votes to be counted.
Another thought is, how would you deal with a motion that is amended at the meeting? If the owners at a meeting agree to the wording of a motion being changed then this could easily affect the voting intention of those who have filled out on-line voting forms prior to the meeting.
In my view, if I was the holder of a proxy form with clearly set out voting instructions I would likely abstain from voting on an emended motion (whilst exercising proxy voting).
Could Kanga or anyone else out there advise how this is dealt with in Qld legislation?
