NSW: Do strata committee agendas need to include attachments for owners?

Question: When an agenda regarding approval for renovations is sent to non Strata Committee members, should it include attachments?

When a Strata Committee agenda is sent to non Strata Committee members, should it include the attachments mentioned in the agenda? If not, why not?

A Strata Committee meeting agenda has been sent regarding approval for the installation of a new kitchen. This is the motion:

MOTION 2: LOT 4 KITCHEN RENOVATION APPROVAL: THAT the strata committee approve the minor works application for lot 4 as per the attached application and documents.

Should the agenda have included the application and documents?

Answer: There is no requirement to distribute attachments to non-strata committee members.

There is a requirement to distribute agenda and minutes for strata committee meetings (or place on the noticeboard, depending on whether the scheme is large or not).

There is no requirement to distribute attachments to non-strata committee members, however these should be available on the schemes records and on request.
