[Community-Discuss] [members-discuss] ATTENDANCE & PARTICIPATION AT THE ANNUAL GENERAL MEMBERS’ MEETING (AGMM)

[Andrew Alston]

There have been no bylaw updates as concerns this - I checked.  This is an entirely arbitrary requirement and as per the CEOs email - was decided by the logistics team - which drastically exceeds the authority of a logistics team when it comes into conflict with the rights of members

What AfriNIC is effectively doing is denying members the right - among other things - to have legal council present and interacting - it’s a very very dangerous move and I will be quite curious to see how the court reacts to such an arbitrary stipulation specified just days before a meeting - considering long standing precedent and the fact that no such restrictions exist in either the bylaws or section 115 of the companies act

Hi Andrew, AFRINIC Comms & Legal,

Why is there a restriction on multiple members from the same organization attending online - as stated we understand the physical restrictions - but the online restriction does not make sense.


Yes, indeed.

Besides I do not think this restriction, on online attendance, was applied in previous meetings. There hasn’t been any amendment to that particular article of the Bylaws between Kampala and now, unless I am wrong. Therefore, why the restriction on online attendance, now? Asking one member of the organisation to join the meeting platform and the other to watch on YouTube.
