What Happens If a Committee Member Is Unfinancial When Elected?
Two of the three executive committee members re-election in 2020 had a Sundry Debt to the Body Corporate, making them unfinancial at the time of the AGM.

Can a Letting Agent Business Owner Be on a Body Corporate Committee?
We have an owner in our 120 lot strata community who owns 12 lots in the resort. They let these lots out through their own company, plus an additional 4 or 5 lots that are owned by others. Neither the Body Corporate nor the Caretaker have approved this business. This owner has now put themselves forward for a Committee position. I thought the BCCM Act did not allow this. Can you please clarify?
Can a Committee Chair Work for the Body Corporate Manager?
I was elected chairperson of a 68 lot accommodation module scheme where I own two lots. Four months after becoming Chairperson I started a new job as an assistant strata manager for the strata company that manages the scheme. I work in a different portfolio that doesn't include my scheme and I disclosed this to the committee with no response. I believe my new employment makes me an "associate" of the body corporate manager and therefore am "ineligible to be a voting member" of the committee.

The partner of a lot owner (who is also a committee member) is a mechanical engineer and suitably qualified to monitor the maintenance of plant and equipment in our 100 lot building. He enjoys doing this.
I am aware that he can be a member of our body corporate committee, which is a subsidiary body corporate in our layered scheme.
Can he be our body corporate representative on the Principal Body Corporate?
