Every one of them was refused by the Board of Directors. Why? Because they were not delivered by May 12. Why?
On April 24, CSIC issued an e-Bulleting with directives how to submit the motions. Read here.
On May 1, Mr. Eastley explained how to interpret the need for signatures on the mastersheet for each motion. Read here.
On May 7, Mr. Eastley clarified the procedure to submit the motions – read here.
Please note: not a word about the time when the motions have to be submitted – it states May 12. Did the Board realize that it is Saturday and the CSIC offices are closed? Did the Board realize that it is also the day of the CPD conference?
On Friday, the first day of the conference, Mr. Eastley told us that we couldn’t deliver the motions to the CSIC offices on Saturday because they are closed. He also said that he would not accept the hard copies of the motions while he is attending the conference. On that day, as most of you know, we have completed collection of all signatures for the motions. We received almost 90 signatures for every motion.
On Saturday, we checked all motions, made sure that only fully filled out support forms are included and scanned every motion into one document. Each motion consisted of almost 200 pages. Each file was about 50 Mb and it was not possible to email the whole file. I separated the files into the mastersheet and the supporting forms signed by members and emailed each motion to the Secretary of the Society with explanation why we could not attach the supporting forms and assurance that the hard copies will be delivered on Monday, as per instructions. Mark Varnam delivered his motion directly to Mr. Eastley on Saturday, 6:15 pm.
On Monday, May 14, Camilla Jones personally delivered all three motions to CSIC office. Nobody mentioned anything about the motions not being complete and thus being rejected.
Today, 11 days later, we received letters signed by the Secretary of the Society. All motions were refused - Transparency , Finance Committee, Director Compensation, Motion to amend By-laws, and Consultant Lien proposal.
