56 When voting member ineligible to vote at committee meetings [SM, s 64]

(1) This section applies in relation to a voting member of a committee (a
"debtor member" ) if, at the time of a meeting of the committee—

(a) the member owes a body corporate debt in relation to a lot owned by the member; or

(b) the member is not a lot owner and—

(i) the member is nominated to be a voting member of the committee under section 11 (1) (b) or (c) ; and

(ii) the nominating entity owes a body corporate debt in relation to a lotowned by the entity.

(2) A debtor member is ineligible to vote at the meeting in the member’s own right or as a proxy for another voting member.

(3) Also, a person who holds the proxy for a debtor member is ineligible to exercise a vote on behalf of the debtor member at a meeting of the committee.

Note—

Under section 116 , it is an offence for a person to exercise a proxy at a committee meeting knowing that the person does not have the right to exercise it.

(4) However, nothing in this section prevents a debtor member from being counted, under section 52 , for deciding whether there is a quorum for a meeting of the committee.
