Meeting procedures Quorum A quorum is present at a meeting immediately following where not less than 50% of those entitled to vote being present. The quorum for meetings is calculated on the basis of the number of members last determined by the owners corporation for the strata committee. Therefore, vacant positions are not excluded from calculation of quorum. Voting rights A strata committee member is not entitled to vote if they were unfinancial at the date the notice of the meeting was given and did not pay the amounts owing prior to the meeting. Attendance If an owner with voting rights is unable to attend the strata committee meeting, they may appoint a nominated representative on their behalf. However, the nominated representative is deemed to only be valid if authorised by a resolution of the strata committee. If the person so appointed, is an existing member of the strata committee, that person may separately vote in their own right as well as in the right of the member they are representing. Decisions at meetings A decision of the strata committee is passed by a simple majority of votes cast for and against the consideration with each person having one vote for each lot in respect of which the person is entitled to vote. Tenant representatives A tenant representative, elected in accordance with Section 33 of the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015 (NSW), is entitled to attend a meeting of the strata committee but is not entitled to vote on decisions of the strata committee or to put a motion or nominate a person for office. Similarly, tenant representatives are not entitled to act as an officer of the owners corporation for strata committee purposes and do not count towards the calculation of the quorum. The strata committee may resolve for the tenant representative to be absent during any discussions that are financial in nature. Non-member owner attendance An owner is entitled to attend a strata committee meeting but is not entitled to address the meeting unless authorised to do so by resolution of the strata committee. Disclosure of pecuniary interests If a member of the strata committee has a direct or indirect pecuniary interest in a matter being considered at a meeting the member must, as soon as possible after the relevant facts have come to the member s knowledge, disclose the nature of the interest at a meeting of the strata committee. After a member has disclosed the nature of an interest in any matter, the member must not, unless the strata committee otherwise determines, be present or take part in any decision in relation to the matter. Meeting protocol Bright & Duggan recommends the following meeting protocols to encourage efficient and effective meetings. Be prompt. Allow sufficient time to register your attendance so that the meeting can commence at the advertised time. Turn mobile phones and any other electronic devices to silent. Address the meeting via the Chairperson and at their permission. The Chairperson is responsible for ensuring all attendees have the opportunity to address the meeting and that the voting process is accurate. Be respectful of others addressing the meeting by not participating in side conversations. Matters not included on the notice of agenda are not permitted to be discussed and resolved at the meeting. This is in recognition of a failure to provide notice to other interested owners. Your decisions should be made for the collective good of the owners corporation, rather than for self-interest.
