    In the ACT, there is no requirement for people with an interest in some proposition to abstain from voting. May be different elsewhere. 

    If a vote goes differently from how it ‘should’ and that is only because of the vote of an interested party, it could be possible to get a Tribunal order reversing the decision (in the ACT at least) on the grounds that the decision was ‘unreasonable’.
