141 Changes to and consolidation of by-laws
(1) An owners corporation may, by special resolution, change the by-laws for the strata scheme.
Note—
If the special resolution is a sustainability infrastructure resolution, fewer votes are needed to pass it. See section 5(1)(b).
(2) The change to the by-laws has no effect until—
(a) the owners corporation lodges a notice, in the approved form, with the Registrar-General, and
(b) the Registrar-General makes an appropriate recording of the notice in the folio of the Register for the common property for the scheme.
(3) The owners corporation must lodge the notice within 6 months of the day the special resolution is passed.
(4) An owners corporation may, by special resolution, consolidate the by-laws for the scheme, whether or not a by-law is amended, repealed or added.
(5) The written consent of the owners on whom a common property rights by-law confers rights or special privileges is not required to consolidate the by-laws for the scheme, if the consolidation does not involve the amendment, repeal or addition of a common property rights by-law.
(6) The secretary of the owners corporation must keep a consolidated up-to-date copy of the by-laws for the scheme.
