| 2.3 | Ordinary Committee Members - All current committee members will continue with the Association except princess, who unfortunately can no longer give the same time as she once committed (thanks go to her for past time and efforts given).

| 2.3.1 | Nomination - Greg, all in favour and accepted.
| |||
| 2.3.2 | Nomination - Fae, all in favour and accepted.
| |||
| 3 | General Business: The newly appointed President took over as Chairperson and opened the floor to any general business and comments. | |||
| 3.1 | Constitution: troy stated that as a group recently we have been too casual with following the constitution however by the same token we must not stick to the letter of the law to the exclusion of fairness, etc. All agreed that we need to once more look over the constitution and rework and better define some parts of this document and will set this as the agenda for our next committee meeting. Huntress stated that there are many parts we will not know whether work well or not until, as has happened recently, they are tested. | |||
| 3.2 | Validity of Nomination: Michael stated that he did not believe Debbledee's nomination was a valid one as it was not signed and was self nominated. The original nomination was shown to him, which was signed and it was pointed out that it had been decided long ago in our constitution that people could self nominate (just as he had for his recent invalid nomination) so her nomination was in fact a valid one. | |||
| 3.3 | Resignation: Michael resigned from the committee. When asked why he decided to resign after earlier in the meeting stating he would be continuing, so that we may see if it was something we could remedy, he simply stated he had changed his mind and did not have to give a reason for wishing to resign from what he saw as a sinking ship. We thanked him for his time and effort put in to the committee so far, including his own input into our current constitution model. It was decided to advertise on the SAmunch list that we still have one vacancy for an ordinary member on the committee. | |||
