- Any Member may propose a motion by sending an email clearly marked as such to the Committee email list.
- The voting period must be clearly stated in the email and must be a minimum of 7 days from the date of posting.
- Members may vote at any time before the deadline via email to the Committee email list, and this email must contain the email in which the motion was proposed.
- Votes must be either "+1" for a vote in favour of the motion; "-1" for a vote against the motion; or "0" or "Abstain" for a "neutral vote".
- For a motion to pass at least two-thirds (rounded up if the number of Members is not a multiple of 3) of Members must cast votes. Neutral votes are counted as being votes for this purpose.
- For a motion to pass at least two-thirds (rounded up if the number of votes cast is not a multiple of 3) of the votes cast are in favour of the motion. - Neutral votes are ignored completely for this calculation.
