A non-owner (eg a tenant) may be nominated for election to the strata committee by an owner who is not a committee member and is not seeking election as a member of the strata committee.

Further, the tenant may vote at a general meeting as the holder of the landlord’s proxy, and, as the proxy holder may be present for all matters to be considered at a general meeting even though the proxy holder is a tenant.
