The committee is obliged to at least investigate a potential by-law breach as part of the job they volunteered to do, and to do so in a timely manner. In Qld, and I think I’ve got this right, you should write it up as an actionable motion for them to investigate then vote yes or no to your motion regarding the pooche at their next planned meeting, or flying minute if one is not planned for the next while. Refer to their duty to know the legislation in your introduction and quote that which you feeling they are not doing. Failure on the committee side to act within I think 6 weeks will be taken as a No vote and the motion would fail – which you would then take it to the Commissioner’s Office and it’s pretty likely they will be overruled as being unreasonable. That’s a long-winded process though but if it comes to that so be it.
