auDA members reject resolutions

admin · July 27, 2018 · Leave a Comment

Today auDA members voted to reject resolutions to remove auDA’s three independent Directors, Chris Leptos AM (Chair), Suzie Ewart and Sandra Hook.

The SGM had been called after a small group of friends and family, of several members requested it under the Corporations Act.

According to figures released by the assistant company secretary and counted under the supervision of KPMG, there was a 64% voter turn out by Supply Class members while a mere 29% of eligible Demand Class members voted. On the motions the results were as follows:

On the motion to remove Suzie Ewart  – RESOLUTION FAILED

On the motion to remove Sandra Hook – RESOLUTION FAILED

On the motion to remove Chris Leptos AM – RESOLUTION FAILED

Removal of Director – Suzanne Ewart

Class For Against Abstain  Eligible to Vote

In a statement released by auDA:

It is time now for all members to get behind the reform of auDA as demanded by the federal government.

auDA is not the plaything of a small group of self-interested parties.

It can no longer be run as a club type organisation with a small membership who wield undue influence.

In 2000 the .au network had just 200,000 registrants now it has more than 3.1 million.
auDA must be run in the interest of all stakeholders including businesses whose livelihoods depend on a safe and secure .au namespace and individuals who use .au every day.

As the government noted in its review auDA is no longer fit for purpose and must be reformed and it will be.

If the reform process is derailed by self-interested groups it is not just auDA that will suffer but the Australian community.

The Board will continue to drive the reform agenda not out of self-interest, but in Australia’s interest.
