...at they have to be signed and registered within 10 days of AGM. What does registered mean?
I have just been checking the SHPL laws. The minutes are signed on every page by the President and the Administrator present at the meeting. The Minutes go in the minute book.The minute book ( Libro de actas) records details of the meeting and the voting of the AGM or EGM is an official legal document and can be used in Spanish Court proceeding.
It must be stamped as authentic by the Notary or a Judge. The book establishes the right of the Community President to bring a lawsuit against any Communuity member who has not paid their fees or anything else that the members have voted on to take another member to court. All votes either way must be recorded including their names. This is essential, as the Minute book as a legal document is evidence in court, with the decisions that have be made by the Community, are a serious matter. If its not authenticated I doubt that Court proceeding would be successful, so a waste of time and money spent on lawyers.
The law states you must be notified at least 8 days in advance for the meeting date, time and place. The President presides over the meeting, and the decisions and the votes, on the agenda items are recorded.
So any Administrator not having the book signed by a Notary or Judge is not doing what they should be or acting as the law requires. I've read many posts about some Administrators on here and some don't appear to be doing a very good job. Some to the point of running Community business, which is not their job, that is the Presidents role and why it is essential to get both good Presidents and Administrators.
