    14 days notice is required for an initial or first AGM, for subsequent AGMs it’s seven days (with the provisions for postage listed above). 

    For EC meeetings it’s only 72 hours with slightly different provisions for notice boards depending on whether or not it’s a large scheme (more than 100 lots).

    6   Notice of executive committee meetings

    (b)  if the owners corporation is required by the by-laws to maintain a notice board, by displaying the notice on the notice board.

    (2)  An executive committee of a strata scheme that is not a large strata scheme must give notice of its intention to hold a meeting at least 72 hours before the time fixed for the meeting:
