Thread: fish and game elections

something is not right in the state of hawkesbay
minutes were claimed to be incorrect at certain meetings yet they were signed off on as true and correct.
conflicting stories everywhere from the top the bottom and even election officials[what the f..k]
i challenge bryce johnson to come out publicly and say why smaller councills are good and give his reasoning if he has .
ever advocated it.
i dont believe the abuse of process ,voters trust and backroom payoffs bad enough is what really trying to be kept from the light of day.

Further, Standing Orders section 2.22.1 Decisions to be determined by majority of votes states “The acts of a council must be done and the questions before the Council must be decided by vote and by the majority of members that are present and voting.”

The question of what voting constitutes can be inferred from Standing Orders 2.23.3 which talks about vote by voices or show of hands in relation to a motion, or electronic voting where that’s an option.”

shame your recording of the vote wasnt as onto it as your new found knowledge of procedures.

I knew it! You're a god damn genius If I haven't said it before- nothing gets solved by chatting on internet forums. From a public discussion point of view this is a dead story.

nice of you to notice tho i realise its no news flash but ultimatly its a problem hb,ers have to sort or eastern and seemingly at national level they will lose thier independence. tho judging by the minutes giving eastern access to your licence money thats already on the cards.
sad but true
but only if we let it be.
christ if f&g spent as much energy on improving voter partcipation as they have on ,lawyers,covering up and spinning this debacle maybe the disechanted licence buyers of the bay would get the councill they need rather than the one lack of interest and apathy permits.

Yip there is some issue's. I have it on reasonable authority one of the Lehman Brothers Directors wants to audit Freddie Mac which would be useful. Nothing to see here

perhaps one of our members on the council could enlighten us on this matter from the july nz council meeting

[QUOTE]b. Council performance self-appraisal[/QUOTE]

c. Allegations raised about a regional fish and game council

hb odds on favourite and form on the course
eastern 2 t0 1 always finishes close up to hb
wellington 14 to 1 nothing useful ever comes out of wellington
southland 5 to 1 shorter if it concerns erroneous behavior with punter information[/QUOTE]

and the winner is

The allegations highlighted below referred to actions of the Hawke’s Bay Fish and Game Council and its previous manager.

ps regions not having a vote dont need to supply a role for the returning officer.
