 A Vote of No Confidence (VNC) can be submitted for any member of a Society’s Committee.  A VNC can only be submitted by either a petition signed by 51% of all members of the society; or by a petition signed by two-thirds of the Society’s Committee.  The completed petition needs to be forwarded to all the members of the Society’s Committee and the Societies Federation President.  An EGM must then be called.
