    The Act clearly allows for secret ballots for the election of committee members at an AGM. Not sure if it covers the “selection” of office-bearers.  I suspect not.

    29 SECRET BALLOTS

     

    (1) Voting on a motion or for an election at a meeting may be carried out by a secret ballot if:

    (a) the strata committee determines that the motion or matter is to be so determined, or

    (b) at least one-quarter of the persons entitled to vote on the motion or election agree that the motion or matter is to be so determined.

    (2) The regulations may make provision for or with respect to the procedures for a secret ballot.
