Dear Mr T, Thomson,

Jimmy,
On the matter of proxies. I am in a community association and the death knell for proxy harvesting is still some time away.
Do you know if “post dated” proxies are legal? Especially post dated to the day of the AGM. Members of our Exec Ctee had over 90% of their proxies ‘delivered’ on the date of the AGM.
The statutory proxy form for both stratas and Community Assocns states it must be signed on the date it is MADE. This is variously interpreted as “the date of effect” therefore enabling, date of AGM post dating.
I believe “made” is archaic legislative language and means, date signed. Therefore precluding post dated proxies.
Can you help, please. Please can you help!! (I’m getting a bit whiny, now!)

Also, can a chairman at an AGM invalidate proxys believed to be post dated??
