I suspect the new rules will be registered by the time the AGM comes around; so any plans should not depend on current rules to oust and Trust directors!
Nothing in the existing rules that membership is age related.
Existing rules are however very specific: Rule 58 states: "No member can be a member of the Society Board who: a) has been a member of the Society Board for 12 consecutive years. AND Rule 98 states: "… No change to these rules shall be valid until registered".
Any changes to the above have not been registered; Trust Board can wriggle as much as it likes but the above remain part of the ' Rules' currently in place
In the rules shown on the Trust website, Rule 98 is very clear: "… No change to these rules shall be valid until registered".
If a new version of rules has not been registered (no matter the reason) then those that are registered continue to be the rules and Trust Directors are duty bound to uphold them. The latest Trust statement appears to be an attempt to circumvent these existing rules and if this is correct the Trust Directors have truly lost their way and should stand aside for those who have volunteered to become Directors.
