Could an extraordinary general meeting convened purposely to discuss the current situation of a club be deprived from passing a vote of no confidence to the committee?
This is what happened on Monday 25 April 2005 at St Joseph Band Club, Hamrun.
After the evasion of various questions pertaining to the present situation of the club, amongst which the financial position, a vote of no confidence in the present committee was proposed and seconded. The club’s president Judge Lino Farrugia Sacco twice decreed that the resolution for a no confidence vote was out of order and that the meeting had come to an end.
Was the president correct in his approach when the meeting was requested by a number of members to specifically discuss the present pathetic situation of the club, emanating from the committee’s non-observance of the club’s statute?
