On behalf of a large scheme in NSW – unfinancial owners cannot vote at a general meeting but does anyone know if they can be part of a requisition for a general meeting (Pursuant to Section 19 (2) and (4) of the NSW Strata Schemes) Management Act 2015)?
Thanks in advance

Section 19 (2) 0f the Act says this:
“The secretary of the owners corporation, or another officer if the secretary is absent, must convene a general meeting (that is not an annual general meeting) of the owners corporation as soon as practicable, and not later than 14 days after, receiving a qualified request.
Section 19 (4) says:
A request is “qualified request” for the purposes of this section if it is made by one or more owners of a lot or lots in the strata scheme having a total unit entitlement of at least one-quarter of the aggregate unit entitlements.
It says nothing about entitlement to vote.
