Paragraph 84

Every question put before a meeting of registered producers shall be decided on a show of hands (a proxy may show his hand) unless, either before or immediately after the declaration of the result of the show of hands, a formal vote is demanded by the Board or by or on behalf of at least one third of those registered producers present in person or by proxy entitled to vote. On a formal vote the Board shall determine the form of the voting paper and shall cause to be sent to every registered producer along with the voting paper such directions for the guidance of registered producers in voting as they may determine. The voting paper shall be sent by post to the registered producers concerned as soon as practicable after the meeting at which the formal vote is demanded. The Board shall determine the last date for the receipt of completed voting papers, how the votes shall be counted, and the manner in which registered producers shall be informed of the result of the vote.
