Voting
Elections are covered by the Fencing Victoria Rules.
Under Rule 5(5)(a) of the Rules, the following categories have previously been decided:
Individual Member (entitled to vote, as per Rule 18(1)(a)):
- Junior Affiliation
- Full Affiliation
- Coach Affiliation
Provisional Member (NOT entitled to vote, as per Rule 18(1)(b)):
Note that a nomination for election for candidate must be made by two Individual members (i.e. not provisional). Candidates themselves may be Provisional or Individual Members.
Individual Members are entitled to vote if they have paid their affiliation for the current Fencing Year (2014).
As a minor has no legal capacity, Junior members under the age of 18 may not exercise their voting rights, except through their legal guardian. Similarly, a proxy may only be provided by the legal guardian of a minor (i.e. the minor has no legal capacity to appoint a proxy). If a minor has completed a proxy form, this will only have effect if it has been also signed by their legal guardian.
