As usual there are posts here which do not reflect the truth and simply seek to knock others. When I was covering the role of International Offficer I requested that all notifications from IOMICA should be addressed to the correct MYA email address, i.e. international-officer@mya-uk.org.uk . When Lester volunteered to take on the role I informed IOMICA of the change in officer and reiterated the need to send notifications to the MYA email. Unfortunately this request appears to have been ignored or missed and notifications have been sent to my old personal email address which I do not monitor on a regular basis. When Rob Walsh contacted the MYA about this matter on Monday 5th I checked the old emails and found the original notification was on 18th October to my personal email and, incidentally, came from a personal email with no indication of its IOMICA origin. This notification did not include any motions. The next communication which included the motions was on 30th November, again from a personal email address. So I apologise profusely for not picking up on this and losing 4 days of debating time! It is also worth noting that there appears to be no mention of this AGM, at least anywhere obvious that I can see, its contents or motions, that I can find on the IOMICA website, which is surely the place where this type of event should be advertised to its members? So before implying to the world that the MYA Exec have deliberately "sat on" anything I would suggest a call or an email to check the facts would be a good idea, or better still, take the bull by the horns and do the job on behalf of the handfull of IOM skippers who actually give a damn and might possibly be affected by these motions.
