Election of 2025-26 Office Bearers and Committee Members

The secretary advised that no nominations had been received prior to the meeting for any committee positions. The Chair called for nominations from the floor, but none were received. Therefore no election was held for any Executive positions, and it was not possible to fulfill the legal requirements for the VRRA to form a Committee at this AGM.  Discussion was held about the implications and suggested way forward for the VRRA.  One suggestion made by the floor was to consider joining forces with Vincentia Matters.
