Ahhhh apologies james. Didn't realise you were going to drafting it. I agree that a motion would need to be in place before the next AGM so that any change in voting system could be applied to proxy votes to the tellars. Seddon

EGMs are normally supposed to be one subject only, I think, even if they're not required to be.
The reason the motion hasn't been drafted is that I've been too busy planing a wedding and running a baseball team, and working, I'm afraid. I promise to get around to it in the autumn.
We will need a separate EGM before the AGM if we want to make changes in time for the 2013 election cycle as votes are cast in advance. But this is a totally different discussion and I agree that it would be more sensible to let it rest until the current EGM proposal is determined.

This is going to be a difficult EGM as it is and I personally wouldnt want to distract from what is going to be an extremely difficult and long conversation for our members to have.
Further more no one has drafted a motion at this time and don't think we should delay the calling of this EGM for what tends to be a long process in itself.
Lets just focus on the issue at hand. Voting systems our the least of our worries.

As I recall from the AGM, there was a suggestion that an EGM be call sometime during the year to discuss changes to the voting system for the board. If an EGM were to be call, I would suggest some time be set aside for such discussion if possible.
