Are you able to help please?

Is there any independent spanish legal body to which the minutes of,  and therefore the actual meeting of a community can be referred for the purpose of declaring a meeting nul & void on the grounds of an illegal vote i.e. voting to suspend the proxy votes held by one individual, but allowing other members of the community to use proxy votes held by them  at an EGM.  Those attending the meeting were advised at the time by the appointed administrator, that to suspend such proxy votes would be illegal but nevertheless bowed to pressure from those attending the meeting and allowed the 'illegal' votes.

Secondly, can anyone advise me whether it is accepted practice to allow  Minutes of an EGM to be discussed and approved / rejected at a subsequent EGM and not by the official AGM.

Any official help would be appreciated.

Thanks for that.  The reasons for me coming back to you are the following:

1. The dream of 6 months at a time (from our experience anyway) is fraught with difficulties because we can only get car insurance for being out of the country for 90 days at a time, so that obviously restricts us to half that.  House insurance is a similar problem.

2.  Apparently your NHS (unless you are of official retirement age) is only valid for 3 months, and although many people are getting by with a wing and prayer, it can only be a matter of time now before scanning passports and the likes of the NHS are linked to 1 huge computer!

3.  Driving to Bristol Airport - may be able to help you there - ignore the motorway signs for the Airport and, maybe with the aid of a GPS, circumvent Bristol - this is roughly (with the aid of Google Maps) how we go: 

Leave M5 at Junction 21:take A370 to Congressbury / Yatton:

After 7.4 miles, turn right onto Brockley Combe Rd..  Follow for 1.4 miles, then continue Downside Rd. for further 1.5 miles.  These are country roads - narrow but with littlie traffic.  In the snow which we did it in, not the best!

Turn right onto A38 [South] and at next roundabout take 3rd exit for Airport.

This route may take longer but it avoids potential traffic congestion around Bristol.

Hope this helps - good luck with your Spain planning and if I can help PM me.

Regards

Many thanks (far more helpful than previous respondent - cheers!)   Quelle bummerre!  Flying from Bristol isn't really a problem but cost of car parking for 3 weeks plus is (can get lift to Cardiff but Bristol is too far to expect friends and family to travel).  The last few trips we've made to Spain have been using car and ferry, so looks like we'll have to continue down that route.  Luckily, now retired, our time is our own and can take afford to choose either to meander through France or pay a bit extra and take Brittany Ferries from Portsmouth to Santander.   Why oh why don't the likes of Easy Jet come in - there must be sufficient  population to sustain at least one budget airline?  Anyway, my moan over for the day - the sun is shining and I've a smile on my face! Thanks again.

Thanks - that was really helpful!  I'd already tried that but couldn't find the answer.

Hi. Does anyone out there have any information as to whether any company is taking over from BMI Baby for flights to Alicante or Murcia after October 2011?    I can't believe the whole of Wales won't have any Airline to Spain - crazy!
