sec.79 Appointment [ SM, s 121 ]
A voting member of the committee may appoint a proxy to act for the member at a meeting of the committee. The appointment of a proxy is effective only if the member or the holder of the proxy gives, in a way mentioned in section 167 (2) , a properly completed proxy form to the secretary before— the start of the committee meeting at which the proxy is to be exercised; or if the body corporate or the committee has fixed an earlier time by which proxies must be given, that can not, however, be earlier than 24 hours before the time fixed for the meeting—the earlier time. Unless it sooner expires under its own terms, a proxy under this part ceases to have effect immediately before the next annual general meeting of the body corporate held after the proxy is given. (sec.79-ssec.1) A voting member of the committee may appoint a proxy to act for the member at a meeting of the committee.
