Under the Constitution, all State Branch Presidents also have right of
attendance at Federal Executive Meetings as Observers.
The motion "That the Federal Executive Committee be given approval to
proceed with the contracting of a full time or part time Executive Officer for
the effective running of the Society’s affairs. " attracted significant
debate both before and during the meeting.
Incoming president Michael Asten referred to an explanatory note emailed to all
members prior to the meeting stating that while it was the recommendation of the
Federal Executive to pursue the objective of appointing a CEO no appointment
would be made without further discussion and consultation with State Branches.
By motion from the floor of the AGM the motion was adjourned.
In consequence the Federal Executive will continue to consider options regarding
such a position, with a view to bringing a new recommendation to the AGM in
2010.
Michael Asten
