100milesaway Posted January 2, 2010 Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 Just noticed this in the News section of the North of England CPSA regional Website (www.noecpsa.co.uk): "IMPORTANT REGIONAL NOTICE - PLEASE READ by ERIC BELL "At the AGM Wallace Sayer retired along with Bill Pennington and Phil Rowbottom. There were no representatives from Lancashire, Merseyside, or Northumberland and only One from Durham. The articles of association state that each county can have a maximum of 2 representatives and require that there are a minimum of 9 people on the committee! Consequently there were only 5 committee members elected, there is currently no committee and in the eyes of the CPSA head office, the northern region cannot lawfully function. If this situation persists then the funds will be frozen and no regional competitions can be either organised or entered by members of the NOE. The five elected members were allowed to arrange an Extraordinary General Meeting which to be held in the Swallow George hotel, Harrogate at 7.30pm on the 7th January 2010, where further committee members can be elected from the above counties, and hopefully the situation can be rectified. It is essential that members of the above mentioned counties attend so that a full Committee can be formed and that the Northern region can continue to function." PLEASE ATTEND THE MEETING AND SUPPORT YOUR COUNTY - YOUR COUNTY NEEDS YOU!" Will any PW'ers from the North of England be going along??? We need as many as possible to turn up in Harrogate to support Nick who has agreed to offer his services as the Lancashire delegate and I will be proposing him, we will need a seconder and as much support as possible from the locals. There are quite alot of DTL's already represented but since Bill Pennington And Phil Rowbottom resigned we urgently need someone who is " into" sporting to represent our interests. Please come along and show some support you can vote if you are in the CPSA and you don't have to live in the county. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel said he will let me know.We need all the help we can get from Lancashire region to come to the meeting. from Auntie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulos Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 Unless I am mistaken, if you are the only one present wishing to go for it then you can be co-opted onto the committee as an uncontested nomination? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

100milesaway Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 I'm just concerned as if it is contested we could get more DTL'S on the commitee. WE have allready lost Bill Pennington and Phil Rowbottom, from Sporting Unfortunatly, Chard ,Cheshire comes under West Midlands region.I can't really understand the voting procedure 'cause I was proposed to my place on the commitee for Lancashire by a Yorkshire member. Obviously goal posts have been moved. from Auntie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
