✨ Rules of Auckland Regional Holdings
7 NOVEMBER 2005
NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 185
8.6 Insufficient Number of Directors
The Directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body, but if and for so long as their number is reduced below the minimum number fixed by rule 4.1, the Board may meet only to notify the ARC that additional Directors must be appointed to constitute the minimum number of Directors to allow a quorum.
8.7 Chairperson & Deputy Chairperson
The ARC may appoint and remove a Director as chairperson or deputy chairperson (as the case may be) of the Board by written notice to the relevant Director (with a copy to the Board). The notice must state the date on which the appointment or removal (as the case may be) takes effect.
If at any meeting the chairperson is not present within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for the commencement of the meeting or is interested in the relevant matter, the deputy chairperson (if he or she is not interested in the relevant matter) will be the chairperson of the meeting. If the deputy chairperson is not present within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for the commencement of the meeting or is interested in the relevant matter, the Directors present may select one of their number (who is not interested in the relevant matter) to be chairperson of the meeting.
8.8 Term of Appointment
The chairperson and deputy chairperson hold office until:
(a) he or she resigns from that office by written notice to the ARC (with a copy to the Board). Such notice must state the date on which resignation takes effect (which may not be a date before the date of such notice); or
(b) he or she is removed from that office by the ARC by written notice to that individual (with a copy to the Board); or
(c) he or she ceases to hold office as a Director; or
(d) the term of the office that may have been specified on appointment expires, unless the Director is reappointed for a further term.
8.9 Votes
Every Director has one vote. In the case of an equality of votes, the chairperson will not have a casting vote. A resolution of the Board is passed if it is agreed to by all Directors present without dissent or a majority of the votes cast on it are in favour of it. A Director present at a meeting of the Board is presumed to have agreed to, and to have voted in favour of, a resolution of the Board unless that Director expressly dissents or expressly abstains from voting on, or votes against, the resolution.
8.10 Resolutions in Writing
A resolution in writing, signed or assented to by all Directors then entitled to receive notice of a Board meeting, is as valid and effective as if it had been passed at a meeting of the Board duly convened and held. Any such resolution may consist of several documents (including facsimile or other similar means of communication) in like form, each signed or assented to by one or more Directors. A copy of any such resolution must be sent, within 5 working days of its being passed, to any Directors who did not sign or assent to the resolution and entered in or kept with the records of Board proceedings.
