Sk8scotland AGM – 25th May 2013 – Postponed

The Sk8scotland Board has decided under Article 6.1.1, to postpone the AGM & Election EGM scheduled for 25th May 2013.

Following an invitation for nominations for election to the Board, no nominations were received. Consequently the Association, as a Company Limited by Guarantee, would fail to meet minimum requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and would not be quorate. The current Board of directors was elected on 19th September 2010 and can therefore remain in office until then.

It is proposed to hold an EGM to decide on future action, with a current recommendation (subject to legal opinion which is currently being sought) that Ice Skate UK (Scotland) Ltd (Sk8scotland) be made dormant. The date for this EGM will be announced in due course.

As Sk8scotland is a fully owned subsidiary group company of NISA of UK Ltd, one option being considered is to make a co-option to the NISA Board and appoint a sub-committee to assist in the delivery of future Scottish events and championships. This would mirror the situation which existed between 1998-2004 during which time Scottish events were organised via the NISA Scotland Organising Committee.
