GPSCCU’s Management Committee had to follow court order to letter

Nov 18, 2022 Letters

Dear Editor,

The recent debacle and failed attempt at holding of the court ordered Special General Meeting (SGM) following the request of the members is a clear indication the present Committee of Management (CoM) had no intention following the court’s order. The members who took the Credit Union to court, requested and received orders from the court instructing the CoM to hold a SGM by October 24th, and that the CoM should use the same IT company out of Trinidad and Tobago that was used in 2021 for the Annual General Meeting (AGM) at which the Committee was elected.

The Committee, in advertising the SGM, failed to state the agenda for the meeting in accordance with the rules of the society and the order of the court. In addition, no venues were announced for in-person voting in the regions. Days before the holding of the SGM, the CoM approached the court to vary its order to allow the CoM to use a local IT company instead.  Without receiving the permission of the court, the CoM went ahead and used the local IT company.

The CoM subsequently withdrew the variation application made to the court. It seems clear to the average member and onlookers that the CoM had no intention to follow the Judge’s order. Their request to the court for a variation was a mere sham. Members ought not sit back and allow this sad situation to go unchecked. This matter must be brought back to the court for sanctions on members of the CoM for their refusal to carry out the orders of the court.

Sincerely,

Joshua Luke
