The Associations Incorporation Reform Act 2012 permits members to take part in general meetings by using technology that allows members to clearly and simultaneously communicate with each other, regardless of the incorporated association's rules about this. • Use proxy voting. You must use a standard proxy voting form if the rules of the incorporated association require you to do so. Members must be given a copy of the form with the notice of the meeting. A person acting as a proxy must act honestly and in good faith, and exercise due care and diligence • Apply for an extension of time to hold the annual general meeting (AGM). The Registrar is currently granting three-month extensions and waiving the usual fee.
