*Dear Martin,Yes, indeed, it’s possible for members to propose agenda topics with resolutions to be voted on. The relevant section of the Articles of Association is Art. 15.6, which I copy below. If this is something any of the members wish to use, we can look at providing a mechanism to collect the signatures of those who support a particular agenda topic and resolution proposed by a member. It would need signatures from 2% of members who could potentially vote at the GM. This would be close to 400 (2% of ~20,000 members). I hope this helps.Best regards,Fergal15.6 On the application In Writing of a group of Members who are jointly entitled to cast at least two percent (2%) of the total number of possible votes, other subjects will be added to the agenda. Such an application, accompanied by the verbatim text of the resolutions proposed by the said Members, shall have to be sent to the Executive Board at least two weeks before the Meeting.The Executive Board shall immediately send the verbatim text of the resolutions proposed by the said Members to all the Members of the Association.15.7 The General Meeting may only vote on resolutions with respect to subjects for which the verbatim text of the related proposed resolutions has been sent to the Members in the manner set out above.* On Thu, Apr 11, 2024 at 2:43 PM Martin Millnert < martin.millnert at brainmill.com> wrote: > Dear Fergal, > > I don’t envy the challenge of the board with this feedback, but I suspect > it is wise to listen to it else the platform for new candidates to the > board the next 5 years seems to be pretty straightforward and likely to be > elected: Cost reductions. > > As a side, doesn’t the articles of association allow for membership > organized items for AGM to vote on as well? > > Best regards, > Martin Millnert > > On 10 Apr 2024, at 15:38, Fergal Cunningham <fergalc at ripe.net> wrote: > > Dear Martin, > > The Executive Board decided on these draft options at its meeting on 25th > of March.
