Merrick & Peter – YES there is a mechanism in NSW whereby a minimum 25% of Owners, as determined from their collective unit entitlement (UOE) and the aggregate UOE of the Plan, can “requisition” the Secretary to convene an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM).
So Merrick, if those who’ve been discussing the matter comprise at least nine (9) Owners, then depending upon the sum UOE of their Lots and the importance of the missed Motion, the following section of the NSW Strata Schemes Management Act (1996) would be another means to have that Motion decided:
Schedule 2 Cl.31(3) The secretary of an executive committee or, in the secretary’s absence, any member of the executive committee must convene an extraordinary general meeting as soon as practicable after receiving a requisition for such a meeting signed by one or more persons entitled to vote in respect of one or more lots, the unit entitlement or the sum of the unit entitlements of which is at least one-quarter of the aggregate unit entitlements.
Just a thought…. if you can get your Motion to the Secretary tomorrow (Mon), they may be suitably motivated to get that out as an additional item on the Agenda if you mention that you and other Owners will otherwise requisition and EGM just for that purpose!
