As I was writing my last column, voting had just commenced in the ballot for fundamental governance reform. Now, as I write this, I have just been advised of the results of the ballot by our Returning Officer. I am delighted by the results. Over 14% of eligible voters took the time to vote, which is a significant number considering that governance reform does not excite many members! Over 80% of voters agreed with the fundamental reform which enables any voting member to stand for election to our Council (soon to be re-named our Board). All four recommendations were supported, with majorities ranging from 67-83%. Details are available in the notice on p. 35.
