Re: Executive Committee Will not provide a List of Compex Owners contact information

Scotlandx raised a very valid point in that “An owner has no right to request Phone Numbers and E-mail addresses of other Owners. (NSW)

However:

1) That I can accept, however when one wants to contact a member of the Executive Committee, without a phone number it is a little difficult if you are a non- resident owner, and not living in the same city.    Even more difficult if the EC members do not provide / notify their contact details when elected. The only way to get contact is to ask the Strata Manager to ask them to contact by providing your phone No  / E-mail address.

Any comments ?

2) The large Owners Corps (100 units or more) must E-Mail all owners details of Executive Committee (EC) Meeting agenda’s and the EC Minutes as they would not normally have a Strata Notice Board.

For this Owners need to provide their E-Mail address, which as a group E-Mail would list all Owners E-mail addresses.

Equally if the OC (<100 Owners) decides at a General Meeting to permit Notices to be sent by E-Mail, and an owner wants to contact another who’s E-Mail address is part of that Group would that then breach the Privacy Act.

To me some EC Committee members use the Privacy Act to avoid people they do not want to deal with.
