Information about Proxies.

To authorise a proxy you must use the prescribed form and deliver it to the owners corporation secretary. If appointing a Power of Attorney as a proxy, you should attach a copy of the Power of Attorney.

Proxies automatically lapse 12 months after the form is delivered to the secretary unless an earlier date is specified. Proxies must act honestly and in good faith and exercise due care and diligence.

Proxies cannot transfer the proxy to another person.

A Lot Owner can revoke the authorisation at any time and choose to vote on a certain issue or attend a meeting. It is illegal for someone to coerce a Lot Owner into making another person their proxy.

Owners corporations must keep the copy of the Proxy authorisation for 12 months.

If you direct your proxy to abstain, they will not vote on your behalf on a show of hands or on a poll, and your vote will not be counted towards the required majority.

You should check that your proxy is able to vote on your behalf. There are restrictions on the number of lot owners a proxy can vote on behalf of. Your proxy will not be able to vote on your behalf if they are acting as proxy for too many people.

Note: If the Lot is owned by a company or trust, an individual must be appointed as proxy.
