(c)

The number of honorary members, life members and honorary life members is fixed at the date of this constitution. No new honorary members, life members or honorary life members will be appointed from the date of this constitution. Subject to this constitution, members of the Organisation have the following rights: (i) Ordinary members may be given notice of, attend and vote at any general meeting of the Organisation. (ii) Honorary members may be given notice of, attend and vote at any general meeting of the Organisation. (iii) Life members may be given notice of, attend and vote at any general meeting of the Organisation. (iv) Honorary life members may be given notice of, attend and vote at any general meeting of the Organisation. Ordinary membership is open to any person, body corporate or organisation that contributes the membership contribution to the Organisation. Members of the Council from time to time are deemed to be ordinary members with all of the rights attached to that membership class without having to pay a membership contribution. A member that is not an individual may appoint a person as a representative for that member. Unless otherwise provided in the document appointing the representative, the representative has the same rights to vote, speak, demand a poll, or act generally at a meeting as the appointing member would have had if that member was present at the meeting. A member whose representative attends a meeting will be taken to have attended a meeting for the purposes of any quorum requirement. The membership contribution for each financial year is payable: (i) for existing members, on 1 July each year; or (ii) for prospective members that apply for membership during the financial year, at the time of application for membership. If a prospective member applies for membership in the last 3 months of the financial year, the Council may, at its discretion, determine that the membership contribution for the prospective member for that financial year should be reduced pro-rata so that the prospective member's membership contribution is 1/12 of the full membership contribution for each calendar month (whether full or part) until the following 1 July. As at the date of this constitution, the annual membership contribution is $100 for each financial year.
