Hello PLUG Members,

We will be holding the PLUG AGM on 13th January at the Collins Street
Centre in South Perth. We've booked Meeting Room 2 from 6:00 PM - 8:00
PM, and will be providing pizzas and a short talk before moving on to
the AGM proper at 7:00 PM and committee elections.

We would appreciate RSVPs so we know how many pizzas to order. They
can be sent to committee at plug.org.au or by responding to the MeetUp
event:

We will be electing a new committee at the AGM, so nominations are
open for the following positions:

* Chairperson
* Vice-chair
* Treasurer
* Secretary
* Ordinary committee member (up to three)

Nominations:
Nominations can be made in writing or email to the Committee
(committee at plug.org.au). Nominations must include the name of the
nominee and nominator (if they are different), who must both be
Financial Members.

Nominees must meet the eligibility rules defined in section 10 of the
PLUG Constitution (https://www.plug.org.au/constitution/current.html)
and also the eligibility rules required by the Associations
Incorporation Act 2015
(https://www.consumerprotection.wa.gov.au/publications/eligibility-requirements-committee-members-associations-info).
Nominees must confirm that they are not ineligible under the
requirements of this Act.

Proxies:
You may appoint another member to attend and vote on your behalf, by
writing to the Secretary (committee at plug.org.au).

Note: all nomination and proxy requests must be received by Sunday
2026-01-11 12:00 noon.

Nominations will only be accepted after this date, including at the
AGM, if there are insufficient nominations to fill a position.

If you have any questions about the positions please email us.
