Hi Dick. To Derek you say
“In all the circumstances, I wonder if you would like to withdraw your reference to the possibility that proxy votes were ignored.”
The suggestion that proxy votes were ignored arose from the minutes themselves. This was Derek’s stated source. The minute says:
“The merits of the two amending motions were considered against each other and the Meeting agreed unanimously that the Derek Howie suggestion should fall in favour of the Walter Buchanan suggestion.”
The minute is correct on this point. There was a vote taken amongst the attendees, and it was unanimous. It couldn’t be unanimous if the proxies were counted. They were not. This may be due to an oversight near the end of the meeting. As regards what the proxy votes said, Andy said he is going to dig it out from his notes and get back to us.
On another issue Dick, are you going to answer my query as to which people input to the minutes? Thanks
Cheers
Walter
