Meetings: Other Business & Close

In this and the following sections we take you through the agenda of a strata corporation AGM.

Other Business & Close

Any decisions that are made should be put as a motion. Ask for a mover and seconder. If there is no support by way of a seconder, declare that the motion lapses for lack of a seconder. If there is a seconder then ask for any discussion on the motion. After a two or three speakers for and against, say: "I will now call for a vote on the motion" (You may ask the Secretary to read the motion again so that members are sure of what they are voting on).
"All those in favour? Against? I declare the motion carried/lost".

Is there any further business?

Hint

As chairperson:

ask for other business at the start of the meeting - this makes gagging a member easier
gagging may be useful where the meeting is running late, others present do not want to discuss the matter
it is at the pleasure of the meeting whether it accepts a motion not on the agenda
