Extraordinary General Meeting the 7th December 2023 📧

Dear parents,

The Extra-ordinary General Meeting 2023 (EGM) which will take place on Thursday evening 7 December 2023 at 19:00 at the canteen on the Evere school site. The EGM will be attended by Notary Maître Frédéric DE GRAVE.

Following the invitation to the Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) which will take place on Thursday 7/12/2023 starting at 19:00 in the canteen of the ES Bxl II Evere school site, Avenue du Bourget 30 at 1140 Evere.

Registration to the meeting before 1/12/2023 is mandatory : CLOSED

The participation in the Assembly, as full member of the Association, is a key responsibility for Class Representatives.

However, to facilitate the fulfilment of such duty, the APEEE statutes (article 9 paragraph 9) contemplate that class representatives are allowed a maximum of 3 proxies each when voting on resolutions. In other words, this means that as a class representative each of you can hold a maximum of 4 votes, that is own vote and three proxy votes. Please note, in order to vote, a class representative must have paid their membership fee (52€).

The voting at AGM will be through an electronic system provided by the company OneTec. This system requires that all proxies are registered in advance so that OneTec may properly allocate the proxy votes.

Thus, class representatives who will not attend the EGM meeting and intend to grant a proxy to another full member (be it a class rep or a Board member), are kindly asked to fill in the form (CLOSED ON SUNDAY 3rd DECEMBER – after a deadline extension of 72 hours)Registration of proxies is CLOSED.

The agenda and background information on the extraordinary general meeting can be found here: AGM – APEEE – EEB2 – Woluwe & Evere (woluweparents.org)

Should you have any question on the resolutions, please be so kind to send them in writing to our secretariat with reference to the relevant item number as per the agenda before 1st December 2023.

CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS: We would like to take this opportunity to share our call for volunteers who would like to help at the “welcome desks” during the EGM, from 6pm to 7pm. If you are interested and would like to welcome the class representatives from your section, please contact the secretariat: secretariat.apeee@woluweparents.org – we are missing volunteers for IT, EN and PT sections.

We would be very grateful for your help & time.

The purpose of the EGM is to vote on Statutes changes that are required due to changes in Belgian company law.

  • The invitation includes the resolutions to the Extra-ordinary General meeting concerning the amendments of the APEEE Statutes as required by 2019 the Code of Companies and associations. I hereby like to draw your attention to the following: “No amendment may be made without a two-thirds majority of the full members present or represented.” (article 22 – page 7 of the current APEEE statutes).

As stipulated in the APEEE statutes, the voting at the EGM can only be done by the class representatives and the Board members.  In case you can’t attend the meeting, please do give a proxy to another class representative or Board member. The information on the electronic voting system and how to give a proxy will be mailed later during the month of November.
