Motions submitted prior to Nov 30 2016 did not require an explanation and so it would be inappropriate to be retrospectively applying the new laws to those motions.
This material following the above statement is a perfect example of the kind of bush-lawyerism that I loathe (and I have only left it up as an example pour encouragez les autres).
In the real world of strata committees and AGMs, the general process is so imprecise that this kind of legalistic hair-splitting is almost irrelevant.
FYI: The case quoted is a classic of two rich parties each trying to impose their will on the other and led to the ridiculous situation where one side won their argument at NCAT while, at the same time, the other side successfully argued to have a strata manager installed because the other side kept taking them to the Tribunal.
No more, please. There are other websites that will indulge your Rumpolian tendencies. Here in the real world we are trying to help people deal with actual problems and provide realistic outcomes.
Lady P’s first response was all that was required. End of story.
