General points
• Please mute yourself (bottom left) unless you are speaking, to reduce background noise
• Don’t press ‘Share screen’ as this will show your screen to everyone
• The button top right enables you to switch between speaker view (large view of speaker, plus a few others very small) or gallery view (everyone shown as equal size).
Questions and discussions;
• If you have a question or wish to speak during the meeting please use the ‘raise hand’ function (click on ‘participants’ at the bottom of the screen, ‘raise hand’ appears at the bottom of the participant list)
• You will be ‘spotted’ by the Secretary who will then invite you to speak.
• Once you’ve spoken, click on ‘lower hand’
• Please do not run side conversations using the chat function as it can be distracting to the host.
Voting
There are several items on the agenda that require a proposer, seconder and a vote from those present. In order to make this as simple as possible:
1. If the Chair has requested a proposer and a seconder and you would be happy to propose or second the motion, please use the ‘raise hand’ function and the Secretary will select from those who have raised hands.
2. Voting will essentially be done in reverse, i.e. we will start with abstentions, then any voting against and if we have neither of these, we will carry the motion/proposal without a specific count.
3. If there is a need to do a count, we will work in the same order from abstentions, to against, to for the motion/proposal but will ask you to use the ‘raise hand’ function when the Chair requests “those abstaining etc.” You will be reminded to lower your ‘hand’ after you have voted, and the Secretary will make sure everyone has done so before the next stage.
