    Is somewhere I can find the relevant legislation or guideline on whether an owner can attend a general (committee) meeting if she/he is not a committee member, in Melbourne Victoria?

     

    (I think you left out the word committee?)

    It’s all in Part 5 of the Owners Corporations Act 2006 VIC.

    It’s not that owners or others can’t attend committee meetings, it’s more that committees in VIC are not required to invite them or even give anyone outside the committee notice of committee meetings.   Committees are required however to keep minutes but they need not distribute those minutes to all owners.  But they do of course become part of OC records.

    I don’t run my committees that way.  I always inform all owners of committee meetings and distribute committee meeting minutes to all owners as well.  And if owners wish to attend, we can consider that request.

    But that’s me.
