GENERAL NOTES FOR ASSISTANCE OF BRANCH CHAIRPERSON

Please Note: These notes may or may not be applicable in your particular case and are not intended to be exhaustive. A good Chairperson will be: • Well informed about the purpose of the meeting. • A good listener who is able to summarise the main points of discussion. • Able to avoid repetition, arguments, interruptions and deviation from the matter

under discussion. • Well versed in the rules of procedure and be able to apply these in accordance

with the type of meeting being held. Before the Meeting • Call for and decide on agenda items with the Secretary. • Ensure that the agenda is circulated well in advance of the meeting. The agenda usually takes this form: 1. Welcome 2. Apologies 3. Minutes of the last previous meeting 4. Matters arising from the minutes (Go through page by page) 5. Correspondence 6. Matters arising from the correspondence 7. Treasurer’s Report 8. Secretary’s Report 9. Club Captains Report 10. Other section convenors’ reports: (individually, including Vehicle Identity

applications which must be approved by the Branch Committee) 11. General Business 12. New members 13. Duty officers for the coming month 14. Next committee meeting date 15. Meeting closed at At the meeting The procedure to be adopted depends on the degree of formality required to conduct the meeting. Most of us have experience of social meetings and other informal gatherings, so these notes will deal with the kind of meeting procedure applicable to the branch situation. The constitution and rules of some branches give directions on how meetings are to be called and managed, but if these are not specified the Chairperson may follow the suggestions below:

Page 9: B R A N C H M A N U A L - Vintage Car Club of New Zealandvcc.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vccnz_branchmanual__29052019.pdf · B R A N C H M A N U A L This Manual is the property

Section 4: B

1. Welcome

A meeting that starts on time with a few good opening remarks sets the stagefor a businesslike approach to matters.

The Chairperson states "I declare this (monthly, annual) meeting of .... open".

2. Apologies

Apologies are called for and read out and a record of who is present is kept.The Chairperson puts a formal motion that the apologies are accepted and thisis voted on.

3. Minutes

Those present at the previous meeting confirm the accuracy of that meeting’sminutes. If the minutes have been circulated in advance, the Chairperson canaccept the motion that they be taken as read and confirmed.

4. Matters Arising

It is very easy for discussion of general matters to take over here and theChairperson should ensure that matters are related to action that was to havetaken place or to questions on specific items. The Chairperson will knowwhich items are to be dealt with further down the agenda and should not allowdiscussion of these at this time.

5. Correspondence

The main points of inward and outward correspondence should be read out tothe meeting and then a formal motion that the correspondence is received andoutward correspondence approved is put to the meeting.

6. Business Arising from the Correspondence

7. Treasurer’s Report

Accounts for payment should be put to the meeting and voted on and althoughsome branch rules do not require a monthly statement of accounts it isrecommended that some indication of the branch’s financial situation be givenat each meeting.

Section 4:

8. Committee Reports Committees handle much of the work of branches and there should be no need

for lengthy or detailed discussion of committee reports. Important matters should be the subject of a written report made available before the meeting, but as a rule committee reports inform the meeting of the action taken, progress achieved and further action to be taken. Discussion should take place so that the meeting can be fully informed of the committee's work and give approval for further action.

9. Other Reports These should also be brief and should deal with specific topics. 10. Election of Officers (if required at the meeting) 11. Motions before the Meeting

It is usual for motions to be communicated to the Chairperson in advance of the meeting so that they can be put on the agenda and considered by members before the meeting. The Chairperson may defer until the next meeting any motions, which have not been notified in this way, but items, which are not too contentious, are usually accepted at the meeting.

12. General Business Items here should be minor. Points of information, questions and proposals

are all acceptable but the Chairperson has the right to decide whether or not a matter should be discussed.

13. Arrangements for next Meeting The Chairperson should ensure that this is discussed so that everyone is aware

of the date, time, venue, and other arrangements. 14. Close of Meeting

General Notes for Assistance of Secretaries The secretary is the chief administrative officer of the branch. A good secretary has:- � A close working relationship with the Chairperson. � A good eye for detail and an ability to organise. � A strong interest in branch matters, being well informed and be able to form

unbiased opinions when called upon. INWARD CORRESPONDENCE Collect mail regularly. National Office normally sends correspondence once a week. Pass accounts to Treasurer and enquiries concerning spares to Spare Convenor/Spare Parts Department to reply. Reply to those where a routine reply is all that is necessary, hold remainder for tabling at next committee meeting then file. Vehicle Identity applications (completed) should all be forwarded to the Branch Verification Committee, then forwarded to National Office after ratification by the Branch Committee. All correspondence addressed to Branch should be minuted. Rally forms - advise editor of Branch newsletter that they are available and hold on file until after entries have closed. Branch Newsletters - Make available to relevant Branch officers, newsletter editor etc. and hold on file (in whatever form your Branch uses). OUTWARD CORRESPONDENCE Retain copies to table at committee meeting, and then file. All Branch correspondence should be minuted. BRANCH COMMITTEE MEETINGS Minutes of Meeting A good practice is for the chairperson and secretary to collaborate on the preparation of an agenda. As per page 4A TAKE TO THE COMMITTEE MEETING: Correspondence Inward/Outward New Members’ Applications (Check that all has been filled in correctly, especially the postal zone number and that the “Club Correspondence” section has been signed. Check also that the proposer and seconder are in fact Club members.) Previous last committee meeting minutes For Chairperson to sign and date after confirmation. Papers Any other papers that may be required for the meeting.

Page 12: B R A N C H M A N U A L - Vintage Car Club of New Zealandvcc.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vccnz_branchmanual__29052019.pdf · B R A N C H M A N U A L This Manual is the property

Section 5: B

1. DURING THE COMMITTEE MEETING:

Take accurate minutes of the meeting, noting whom moves and seconds items such as: (a) After apologies received ‘that the apologies be accepted’.(b) After previous minutes ‘that the previous minutes be confirmed and

signed as a true and complete record’. (Because confirmation ofminutes is a serious step, minutes should never be taken as readexcept where the minutes have been circulated to all members insufficient time for them to be studied.)

(c) After correspondence ‘that the inward correspondence be received andthe outward correspondence be approved’.

(d) After the Treasurer has made his/her report ‘that the report be adoptedand the accounts paid.’

(e) After other reports ”that the report is moved and seconded”Note any items of business arising from the minutes or correspondence.

2. After the minutes have been read and confirmed, the Chairperson must signand date them at the bottom. Minutes must be kept in a minute book orfolder.

3. Minutes must show the date, place and nature of the meeting, names (ornumbers) of those present and the names of members sending apologies fornot being present, coming late or leaving early.

Any errors in the minutes should be put in order before the minutes are adopted. The Chairperson and the Secretary should sign any alteration.

Note briefly other items of business discussed, but record precisely any decisions arrived at. Any decisions of consequence and definitely any which involve expenditure of Branch funds must be formally proposed and carried by a majority. Full and accurate recording of such decisions is necessary (but not of the discussion leading up to it). For example, there is no need to say, “A said this. B disagreed and said that. C suggested a compromise and moved that we do so and so. D who said that this would be a good idea seconded this. The question was put to the meeting and all were in favour”. Instead say “After some discussion, C moved, D seconded so and so. All were in favour,” but make sure ‘so and so’ is precisely worded.

4. Correspondence• collate and present to committee meeting.

5. Secretary’s Report• Report any transfers, resignations etc.• any other notices received from National Office• any other notices received from other Branches etc

6. New Members’ Applications - read out names, vehicles, proposers andseconders for the committee meeting to approve.

Page 13: B R A N C H M A N U A L - Vintage Car Club of New Zealandvcc.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vccnz_branchmanual__29052019.pdf · B R A N C H M A N U A L This Manual is the property

Section 5:

C

FOLLOWING THE COMMITTEE MEETING New members’ applications - sign, date and forward to National Office. Vehicle Identity Applications - collate those approved (as per Branch practice) and forward to National Office. Correspondence - write any replies etc. that may be required, making it clear that they are written on behalf of the Branch and not necessarily expressions of personal views. Minutes of the meeting - write up and forward to all attending the committee meeting (and any other members as per Branch practice) as soon as possible. It is also suggested that a copy be made available at the clubrooms. File previous committee meeting minutes and any correspondence dealt with. Keep proper records, so that previous minutes, correspondence and reports can be found quickly as required.

Remember that confidential matters must be kept confidential. OTHER SECRETARIAL DUTIES: Remember to send changes of addresses, telephone numbers etc to the National Office for alteration on the master database for the Club. If it is Branch practice, contact unfinancial members, advise them of their status and that they will no longer receive magazines. There may be a genuine reason for non-payment that can be easily rectified. Advise that a reinstatement fee may be payable if they allow the membership to lapse. Members not financial at the time the subsequent year’s subscription is due will have their record categorised ‘unfinancial two or more years’ and cease to be members. They must re-apply for membership if they wish to rejoin. The National Office will send a list of financial members, addresses and telephone numbers. Updates can be requested if need be. A copy of this list is useful for section convenors/committee members. A complete membership list and disk set for the entire Club is forwarded from National Office, to each Branch. This shows members’ vehicle and contact details. (Please note, this list only contains financial members who have authorised the Club to print their details on a membership list.) The Secretary is responsible for providing copies to members who request it. There is often a charge for photocopying. The charge must not be in excess of the cost of copying. The Privacy Act prohibits the sale of Membership Lists. Only members of the Club can obtain copies of this list. Due to the price of individual units, it is recommended that Secretaries ask members (via Branch newsletter) to notify him/her if they would like a copy, so as to obtain bulk copying rates.

10/09/2015 NATIONAL EXECUTIVE MEETINGS These are held twice a year. The national body pays full travelling expenses for the delegate from each Branch. If travelling by car, a reimbursement fee per kilometre is made. Branches are responsible for organising their own air transport for their delegate's travel to Club meetings at the most effective rates. The Club will reimburse branch delegate's travel expenses of either ground travel at current rates or airfares, whichever the cheaper, provided any airfares are booked no later than 28 days prior the meeting. Where a member of a Branch is required to pay costs, the Branch should advance these and make a claim after the meeting, using the form supplied and attaching any receipts or airline tickets. Reimbursements are paid by direct credit along with the usual monthly disbursement. The delegate (appointed at Branch Annual General Meetings) are expected to attend Executive Meetings. A branch may send an observer(s) but they will not necessarily be sitting at the table with their delegate.

STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS ETC. • Notice of Annual General Meeting This must be published several days before the meeting, either in the newspaper or the newsletter (in which case the newsletter must be delivered in time). The notice must state the time and place of the meeting and give a brief agenda as per branch rules. Refer to your

Branch Constitution for rules.

• Special General Meeting Same drill as for Annual General Meeting. SGM's are called in order to consider change of rules, or when a major item of policy or decision to spend Branch funds is to be considered. • Minutes Minutes of AGM and SGM must be recorded more formally and in more detail than for ordinary meetings. The minutes of the previous AGM and any SGM during the year are read and confirmed at the subsequent Annual General Meeting. • Annual Balance Sheet Treasurer prepares this and has it audited in time for presentation at the Annual General Meeting. A copy must be filed with the minutes of the AGM and a copy must be sent to the Registrar of Incorporated societies together with a statement as outlined in the appropriate section of this Manual, and to the VCC National Office. • Annual Report A copy of the Chairman's annual report is filed with the minutes of the AGM. • Follow Up After the AGM, complete the Branch Meeting and Officers form and Calendar of Events, and return to Head Office. Also send a letter of thanks to the Branch Auditor and Branch Solicitor.

CHANGE OF RULES Any changes of rules must be approved at a SGM called for the purpose. The proposed changes should first be carefully considered by and have the support of the committee and confirmation from the National Secretary/Treasurer that they do not conflict with the National Constitution. When a change has been approved notification must be filed with the Registrar of Incorporated Societies and a copy sent to the VCC National Office. The changes do not take effect until after they are lodged. Refer to your Branch Constitution for complete

details.

Section 5: E

CONDUCT OF MEETINGS It is by rights up to the Chairperson to conduct and control the meeting but not all chairpersons have this skill. The Secretary can assist in an unobtrusive way, for example, ask who moved and seconded an item if the Chairman forgets (so that you can record it in the minutes). Some members ramble on, or get off the subject - deal with this by raising the next item on the agenda. If discussion seems to be getting nowhere try to present a firm proposal (a combination of what all speakers have said; avoid pushing your own viewpoint too hard) to be voted on. Often everyone is in basic agreement but nobody seems able to come to a conclusion. By noting the consensus of opinion you should be able to quietly arrive at something that is acceptable to all.

LEGAL DOCUMENTS Copies of land deeds, insurance policies, registration certificate of any vehicle owned etc. should be held in a permanent secure file.

PUBLIC LIABILITY The Club has negotiated a Public Liability policy that covers the entire Club.

FORMS On file you should have a supply of:

Application for Membership Write in the amount of subscription and Branch address before giving to prospective member. When form is completed (including Proposer and Seconder, whose names should be clearly printed and signing of the Privacy Act section) and passed by Branch Committee, forward with the correct funds to the National Office. Remember to sign and date the form.

The National Office sends a request to each branch annually, in December, for the branch levy for the following year. In February the National Office will forward to each branch a ‘New Members Fees” structure for the next year. This breaks down the costs in to quarterly fees, depending on when members join. It also shows the fees for joint members plus single members. Refer to Section 11 for further details.

Vehicle Identity Cards Further copies of Application forms are available from National Office. New Members are forwarded copies. Encourage members to complete these. They are to be returned to the Branch Secretary. You forward them to the correct branch authorities for approval. Upon completion, they are sent to the National Office for processing. Refer Section 15 for further details.

Section 6:

A

GENERAL NOTES FOR ASSISTANCE OF TREASURER The Treasurer's basic role is to record income and expenditure. Anyone who is precise and painstaking may be suitable, especially one who is willing to learn from and be guided by an auditor. Beyond this basic role the Treasurer also acts as the branch’s financial director, responsible for advising the branch about the level of expenditure or on the use of funds held. Specific duties are: - Immediately after the AGM and the appointment of new officers for the coming year, the Treasurer prepares a budget based on information available from previous years and plans for the coming year. It should show both expected income (e.g. subscriptions, gate earnings, sale of work, etc.) and projected expenditure (e.g. rents, equipment, insurance, power etc). Do not get caught with rising costs. Mark items that can be cancelled if income proves to be lower than expected, or costs higher. The budget is presented to the first general committee meeting for adoption as the financial target for the year. Aim always for a surplus, even if a small one. Establish a bank account. It is usual to allow a combination of two out of three nominated people to draw on it (e.g. Chairperson, Secretary, and Treasurer). The bank will need specimen signatures, and usually a written mandate from the branch. It is often comforting to have a requirement of two signatories for payments. Make a firm rule that NO payments are to be made except by cheque, and that ALL receipts are to be banked intact. This will give a clear record and avoids much account confusion especially when branch officers are inexperienced. Often the Treasurer is given authority to pay accounts up to a certain figure without committee approval. A list of these payments is reported to the next committee meeting and endorsed. Other larger accounts will need committee approval before payment. There may be a need for petty cash. This can be handled in two ways. Either a comparatively small amount is made available for control by the Secretary or else those expending money on the branch’s behalf keep an exact record and present it to the Treasurer for reimbursement, perhaps once a month. The latter method gives a far better control and is to be preferred. The Treasurer should watch these expenses to see that they remain within reason and that unnecessary spending is avoided. While no one should be out of pocket through service given to the branch where there is a cheaper reasonable alternative the Treasurer should encourage it. At each regular committee meeting (usually monthly) the Treasurer reports financial results, with a brief comparison of how the situation compares with the budget, and perhaps with the situation of the previous year. If results differ widely from the expected, the Treasurer should make this plain and may suggest alternative courses. It is the Treasurer's duty to watch the level of spending generally and pull the branch

up if it appears to be spending beyond its means. The Treasurer is responsible for collecting all receipts, including the results of fund raising, functions, subscriptions etc. If the task is not done personally the Treasurer should supervise collection in some way. For specific projects or functions the Treasurer may find it best to prepare a special budget for the event. When cash is being collected at a function see that the 'gate' is an adequate barrier and that the cash receptacle is deep enough to discourage filching when there is a crowd. Keep a reasonable count of attendance, if possible, and relate this to receipts. In the early stages come prepared with sufficient change. If the entry fee is set at a round figure, equivalent to a single note or coin in common use, there will be fewer problems with change. The Treasurer checks the monthly bank statements and any charges made setting them against the records kept by the branch and against the budget. If the branch is holding substantial funds the Treasurer may suggest investment. An independent audit is mandatory. The setting of budgets and their approval is subject to each branch Constitution. Treasurers should make themselves aware of their branch’s requirements.

ACTS OF PARLIAMENT AND THEIR IMPACT ON CLUB OPERATION

Like any other body involved with members of a society, branches must ensure adherence to the terms of various Acts. In general, courtesy and common sense are all that are required. Copies of the Acts are available, for a small charge, from Government Bookshops. If at all in doubt, contact the National Office or a Management Committee member.

Page 20: B R A N C H M A N U A L - Vintage Car Club of New Zealandvcc.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vccnz_branchmanual__29052019.pdf · B R A N C H M A N U A L This Manual is the property

THE INCORPORATED SOCIETIES ACT

The Executive requires that all Branches be registered under the Incorporated Societies Act 1908. Your questions can be answered by going on to the society’s website - www.societies.govt.nz and choosing the Incorporated Societies Option.

Branch Committee’s should familiarise themselves with the Act. There are certain tasks that must take place. If you click on the Incorporated Societies Option and choose “Forms and Fees”, you will find information and forms that need to be completed for many tasks. Important points to note are:

• Branches must file Financial Statements ANNUALLY • Branches must file any alterations to the Rules/Constitution • Branches must file a Change of Registered Office

Financial Statement

Alteration to Rules Click on Forms under the Incorporated Societies Option on their Website, and you can download all the information you require.:

Section 7: C

10/12/2018

PRIVACY ACT This information is of relevance to all Branches and every sub-committee, be they local or national, that has access to a mailing list. Privacy Officers

It is the recommendation of the Privacy Commission that specific officials exist. Each branch should have an appointed Privacy Officer, the Secretary being the most appropriate person. That person should be responsible for the dissemination of membership information, the protection of all-personal records and protecting the privacy of members. It is the Officer's responsibility to ensure that branch records are secured. Storage and Security

Member information is to be protected by such security safeguards as it is reasonable, in the circumstances, to take against loss, access, use, modification, disclosure or misuse. Membership Application Form

Members have the option of asking for their information to be suppressed except for administration purposes between the branch and National Office. The Application form asks the new member to sign whether they wish to have their information available, or not. It also states: “No signature reflects your APPROVAL to allow your information be made available”. There is no provision available to have some information available and not

other.

Access to and Correction of Personal Information

Members have the right of access to their records and may change them at any time. All information held must be disclosed on request of the member. Imparting of Members Details

The current procedure at national level for address enquiries by mail is to advise the enquirer that their request has been passed on appropriately, for the attention of the member involved. A telephone enquirer is obliged to identify themselves and assurance is gained that the enquiry is not of a commercial nature. In the event of unfamiliarity or uncertainty, details of the enquiry are recorded. As these enquiries are usually to the benefit of members, there is no reason why this system should not continue, in fact discontinuation would anger many members. At Branch level similar provision should be in place. Access to Commercial Sector

Only the Branch Committee should authorise access to member information. Such access may still be provided without breaching the Act, as long as members' information is not supplied directly to the commercial concern and those opting to withhold their details are not included.

Section 7: D

4/12/2018

HUMAN RIGHTS ACT Discrimination by colour, race, ethnic or national origins, religious or ethical belief, sex, marital status, disability or age may all lead to complaints under the Act. This Act encompasses sexual harassment. Discrimination between officials could lead to a complaint; between officials and employees or members and employees. Inability to, or preference to, resolve issues with members of the same sex, over members of the opposite sex, could lead to a breach of human rights complaint. Any complaint should be addressed in the first instance at Branch level, however, the member has the right to take whatever action they prefer, be it Management Committee intervention or directed to the Commission.

COMMERCE ACT Of more relevance for Beaded Wheels than Branches, in relation to advertising, the restrictive trade practices provisions of this Act could be breached by refusal to accept proffered advertising. Generally, there are very few circumstances under which advertising can be safely refused and they basically relate to human rights, decency, etc. It is incumbent on the Branch to ensure that they do not accept an advertisement that may breach any Act. Of course, if it is your policy to have no advertising in your newsletters that is acceptable. PRIVACY ACT

Printing any material or photograph about a person, without their permission, may lead to a breach of the Act. Should a person ask for the withdrawal of an item, an apology, an amendment or a retraction, there are very few reasons by which the request can be refused without risking prosecution. As a policy, the Editor should comply with all such requests. HUMAN RIGHTS ACT

The use of nick names with racial or ethnic origins, whilst not necessarily offending the person to whom the name is attributed, may offend another reader. Irish or other ethnic jokes or poems, mechanical comparisons that could be perceived as derogatory, the use of sexist language, cartoons that show a gender in an unfavourable light, could all lead to an offence. Dealings of a discriminatory nature with contributors, or their contributions, advertisers, or their advertisements, could also lead to a breach of the Act. Advertisements should not exclude a section of the community. The most easily overlooked of these are ones that refer directly to one gender. For instance see edition 205 of Beaded Wheels, page 27. The advertisement for the panel beating video required alteration of a line that originally said "A NZ video for the NZ man", which was subsequently altered to "A NZ video for the NZ'er".

COPYRIGHT ACT Again of more relevance to Beaded Wheels, the Act provides for protection of literary, dramatic and artistic works, from misuse or reproduction, through any medium, without permission from and acknowledgement of those to whom exclusive right belongs. Artistic work encompasses photography. As a general rule, acknowledge everything that is not submitted by the originator and do not reproduce newspaper photographs without approval.

EMPLOYMENT RELATIONS ACT Should any Branch employ an official, they should contact the National Office for information on the requirements of this Act. NOTE: BRANCH NEWSLETTERS

If courtesy, discretion and common sense prevail, no complaints should result. Whilst it is not considered that any contributor would deliberately offend, there are many subtle ways that offence could be caused. In the event of a complaint, obviousness is not acknowledged by the Commission as an acceptable defence. In these matters it is irrelevant whether the newsletter is only distributed to members, or more widely. Any individual who reads it may lodge a complaint.

ARCHIVE POLICY

Objectives of maintaining an Archive at the Vintage Car Club of New Zealand (Inc.) National Office

1. To obtain, conserve and record a collection of items relating to the history of the

Vintage Car Club of New Zealand (Inc.) 2. To obtain, conserve and record the motoring activities and history of club members,

vehicles and events 3. To preserve and record historical records concerning aspects of motoring in New

Zealand Ownership of donated items All items donated to the Archive of the Vintage Car Club become and remain the property of the Vintage Car Club of New Zealand (Inc.) to be retained or passed on as per the objectives and guidelines in the current policy. All items donated to the Archive of the Vintage Car Club of New Zealand (Inc.) must have clear proof of ownership. The Archive will not accept any items where ownership is unclear or in dispute. The Archivist will require suitable proof of ownership should there be any doubt as to the ownership of any items donated. Policy review The above policy is subject to review as or when requested by Management Committee of the Vintage Car Club of New Zealand (Inc.) or the appointed Club Archivist. Guidelines for accepting donations The Archive of the Vintage Car Club is grateful to accept donations of records, photographs, documents, books, artifacts or similar items relating to vintage motoring or New Zealand motoring history. Due to space restrictions and the fact that the Archive is not staffed or open on a daily basis, the Archive cannot act as a general motoring library. While grateful for donations, the Archive is bound by the above objectives. Should any donated item fall outside of those objectives (such as books or publications that do not directly relate to New Zealand motoring history or the Vintage Car Club of New Zealand (Inc.)) then those items will, at the discretion of the Archivist, be passed to an appropriate Vintage Car Club Branch library where they are better able to be stored and made available to Club members. The Archive will not collect wheeled vehicles or parts thereof, recognising that they may be more appropriately collected by other organisations such as museums or Vintage Car Club Branches. When donated items require specialist storage or preservation, the Vintage Car Club of New Zealand (Inc.) reserves the right to pass them to organisations better equipped to ensure the correct preservation and/or storage of those items.

Secretary/Treasurer of the Club for the attention of the Management Committee under delegated

power from the Club’s Executive.

6. A Branch Committee may proceed to deal with any written complaint received by them in accordance

with clauses 3 – 5 above, if the Branch Committee has the capacity to efficiently and effectively deal

with that complaint in accordance with the Branch Constitution, the Club Constitution and these

Bylaws. If not, the complaint must be promptly transmitted to the Secretary/Treasurer of the Club for

attention.

members, the Chairman of the Branch shall promptly investigate to determine the facts and advise

the member(s) concerned of the complaint and record any explanations given. If the situation is

considered serious enough to invoke the sanctions available to the branch under this bylaw, as

defined in clause 9 below, the Chairman shall immediately advise the Secretary/Treasurer of the Club

of the circumstances, also advising which of these sanctions would be considered against the

member in accordance with the Branch Constitution.

8. If the Secretary/Treasurer receives advice of a written complaint about the conduct of a member(s),

The member must have completed the “Notification of Transfer” form. The completed form must then be forwarded to the National Office for processing. Any member who notifies an address change that gives an overseas address will automatically be transferred to the Club’s overseas group of members. If they wish to obtain a particular Branch Newsletter, they need to arrange this directly with the relevant branch. If they wish to remain a member of a NZ based branch, then they must supply a NZ postal address. CLUB CONSTITUTION ON MEMBERSHIP Membership is covered under Section 5 of the Club Constitution. The advantage of Joint Membership is that the subscription payable is nominal for the extra member, recognising the reduced administration costs and the saving in supplying only one "Beaded Wheels" magazine. One joint fee is payable for each additional Joint Member. Joint Members have full voting rights. It is standard practice that Partners and/or dependant children who are accepted as Joint Members, when they cease to qualify under the terms, they have the right to automatically become members on application and payment of the Club’s subscription and any Branch Levies, the following year. If an additional Joint Membership is added to an existing membership, an application form needs to be completed and approved by the relevant branch before being forwarded to the National Office with the relevant funds for processing. All members are eligible to hold office on the National Executive.

INTRODUCTION FOR PROSPECTIVE MEMBERS STRUCTURE

The Vintage Car Club of NZ (Inc.) is an Incorporated Society. A President, Secretary/Treasurer, Club Captain Northern Region, Club Captain Southern Region, Registrar, Beaded Wheels Editorial Committee Chairman, Speed Steward and three Committee Members make up the Management Committee, who meet at least four times per year. The Executive consists of a delegate of each duly established Branch of the Club (who may be the Branch Chairman) or a substitute branch member for the delegate appointed by the branch committee (all of whom must be financial members of the branch they represent who have been elected by such Branch in accordance with their Constitution or Rules) and also the members of the Management Committee. They meet twice a year. The main objective of the Club is to foster an interest in older vehicles.

MEMBERSHIP

A new member’s application must be proposed and seconded by existing Club Members. Members of their family, as defined in the constitution, may also join as “Joint Members”. Subscription rates vary with the type of membership and the Branch joined. Once a member, the National Office will invoice all existing members annually and these are paid to the National Office who apportions the funds as required. Part of the subscription is the Branch Levy, which is returned back to the Branch, the remainder goes to the National Office for administration and towards production of the Club’s magazine “Beaded Wheels” which is posted out to every financial member six times a year.

In addition, Branches publish a monthly newsletter containing information relative to Branch activities, rallies, advertisements of spare parts and vehicle sales etc. Members are welcome to attend activities at any Branch, not just their own local Branch.

Section 11: E

10/09/2015 RALLIES A National Calendar of Events is published in the October/November issue of Beaded Wheels. The Club Executive approves this list after Branch submissions, during the Annual General Meeting and Conference held in August, and it includes regional, national and major Branch events throughout the year. In addition Branches hold local rallies, as advertised in their newsletters. MEETINGS Most branches hold monthly meetings (many Branches have their own clubrooms) where every member is entitled to attend. News is given relating to upcoming events and activities etc. Members from other Branches are always welcome. At many meetings a speaker is provided to talk on a range of topics relevant to our Club objects. “Noggin and Natter” type evenings are often held as a purely social get-together, to talk old cars and bits and pieces. VEHICLE SHOWS and PARADES Sometimes members vehicles are requested for displays, parades, etc. and this is generally organised as a branch activity to provide an opportunity for members to show the public what the Club is all about. SPARE PARTS A wide range of spare parts is advertised in 'Beaded Wheels' and Branch Newsletters by both members and firms who specialise in tyres and parts for club eligible vehicles. Some Branches have their own spare parts departments which trade in parts. Swap meets are organised at various venues, which give all members an opportunity to sell, buy or swap spares. VIGILANCE The Management Committee keeps a watching brief on changes to legislation regulations to ensure that the interest of Club members and their vehicles are not compromised by changes to government rules.

10/09/2015 NEW MEMBER APPLICATION FORMS Instructions to assist completion: 1. Please ensure that the name of a new member(s) and their address is printed in block

letters, legible and in the preferred order. As part of the application form includes the accommodation for joint memberships, and junior membership, all birthdates for children and Junior membership MUST be included (see Constitution).

2. Address – member’s correspondence address becomes the computer record and is used

for all future labelling. Inclusion of the relevant postal code is necessary and obtainable through the NZ Post Postcode book or on their Postcode Website. This ensures cheaper bulk posting for the Club. Please include suburbs where appropriate. The street address, where different, is used for branch purposes.

3. Condition Types - available condition types are printed on the form. The condition of

vehicles is computerised therefore it is helpful if the classification options are referred to. 4. Proposer/Seconder - proposer and seconder's names should be printed in block letters

alongside their signatures and their membership number. 5. The portion pertaining to the Privacy Act SHOULD be signed and dated. If this is not

completed, the member will automatically be logged as “Approval to allow their information made available”. Joint members should both sign. It is not possible to suppress partial details therefore it is all or nothing. Joint membership cannot choose both options.

6. Passed by Branch Secretary - this section must be completed by the Branch Secretary

before the National Office can process the form. It is important to fill out the Branch details as the Branch is not always clear from the member’s address.

7. New member applications should be forwarded to the National Office only after the Branch

Committee has accepted them and they are signed by the Secretary. The new member should not send them directly to the National Office. Appropriate payment should be attached. Once processed, the application will be returned to the Branch for their files.

8. New membership is subject to final approval at the Executive Meeting following the date on

which they are processed at national level. NOTE: If joining as a joint member with an existing member (i.e. joint member as described in the Constitution) an application form must be completed along with the details of the existing member (i.e. name and membership number).

EG: If a 35 year old single member was due to pay $100, then a junior member would be paying $50.00.

TRANSFER BETWEEN BRANCHES

If a member wishes to transfer to another Branch during the financial year, Branch Levies are calculated out manually from the number of months spent in each branch and the money is shared out appropriately between the two Branches.

Any transfers of members will appear on the monthly Changes Report.

Note that a transfer is by request and not automatic on notification of a change of address. All transfers between Branches must be advised formally to the National Office using the relevant Transfer Form – See Section 11H. This form must be signed and completed by the member, and both branches BEFORE the National Office receive it.

The Branch monthly Changes Report will show members status, if changed, as one of the above. A Resigned member is a member who has officially notified the National Office or their Branch Secretary of the change. Unfinancial members are those who have not paid their subscription. Reinstated Members are those who have paid late, after being flagged as unfinancial or who have reversed their resignation.

Nominations must be in the hands of the Club Secretary/Treasurer not less than fifty-five days before the Annual General Meeting. If the number of nominations requires an election, ballot papers will be posted to each member not more than forty-two days before the meeting indicating the date of closure of the ballot i.e. 8 a.m. on the fifth day prior to the AGM.

C) RESPONSIBILITY OF DELEGATES TO MEMBERS AND BRANCH

It cannot be too strongly stressed that the member elected to the position of delegate takes on a responsibility in the running of the Club at National level. This should be an active responsibility and not merely encompass the promotion of matters affecting the member’s branch only. It is therefore vital that this member should wherever possible attend National Executive meetings and prior to each meeting they should be briefed by their branch members as to what stance to take on matters placed on the agenda.

Whilst involvement in the decision making is important, another reason for representation of branches on the National Executive is to promote feedback to members of business transacted at meetings. It is therefore expected that representatives should give a full report to their branch.

It is therefore important that branches should make provision to discuss all items on the Agenda and instruct their delegate accordingly. Notices of Motion also need to be fully discussed locally so all members can make an informed decision when voting.

10/09/2015 C. BY-LAWS OF THE VINTAGE CAR CLUB OF NZ (INC)

Any alterations to the Club’s By-Laws must follow the procedure as out lined in theClub’s Constitution Section 16. The following procedure shall be followed:

(Extract from Club Constitution)

D. GENERAL BUSINESS AT A.G.M

The AGM is intended as a forum where any financial member can have his say and"General Business" caters for this need. No notice of items of general business isrequired. While it is difficult to draw a line between general business and a remit, asa 'rule of thumb' it should be considered that if the member concerned has a firmresolution in mind rather than a topic for discussion a remit should be put forward andgive the required twenty eight days notice so that Branches can discuss the topic andinstruct their delegate accordingly.

E. DISCUSSION AT BRANCH LEVEL AND INSTRUCTIONS TO DELEGATE

It is recognised that with a large National Club it is not feasible for all members toattend the Annual General Meeting and for this reason, it is important that branchesshould discuss all items on the agenda and instruct their delegate accordingly.Notices of motion also need to be fully discussed locally so that all members canmake an informed decision when voting.

F. VOTING

Notices of motion to be voted on by Postal Ballot are sent out to branches and printedin Beaded Wheels prior to the distribution of ballot papers. Voting is done inconjunction with the elections for the members on the Management Committee.Refer to Club Constitution Rule 8 for details on postal voting.

INSTRUCTIONS TO RALLY ORGANISERS

THE INSTRUCTIONS TO RALLY ORGANISERS (Section 20:A) AND RALLY RULES AND INTERPRETATIONS (Section 20:D) should be read thoroughly before planning and setting a rally/event. A copy of these “Instructions and Rally Rules” will be made available to person’s setting rallies/events, by the Branch Committee prior to the start of planning. The safety of our members, marshals, entrants and other road users will take top priority at all times. This should be discussed between the Rally Director and Branch Committee. The New Zealand Traffic Regulations will take priority over rally instructions and will be observed at all times.

OBJECTIVES Remember, the objective of a rally is for members to be able to get from point “A” to point “B”, without getting lost, to enjoy the company of their fellow members and being able to gain enjoyment from using their Club Eligible vehicles.

RALLIES Can be any one or a combination of the following;

(A) Time Trial (B) Reliability Trial (C) Rally (D) Gimmick Trial (E) Road Safety Trial (F) Tour

(A)TIME TRIAL

Is a competition wherein the main portion of the route is over public roads and in the marking of the competition is based on adherence to the correct route and maintenance of time or speed schedules. Time Trials may include untimed touring sections, which must be clearly shown in the route instructions. (B) RELIABILITY TRIAL Is a time trial of such duration that the reliability of the vehicle used by the competitor has an important bearing on the chances of completing the course. In all other respects, the definition of a time trial will apply to the Reliability Trial.

A prescribed route may have to be followed, but no average speeds will be required. A tour may include additional events at the final assembly point.

SECTION 20: C

06/12/2012 LEAD, TRAIL & BACKUP VEHICLES A lead car should precede the rally to ensure that all checks and marshals are correctly positioned, all roads are open and that all signs needed to hold the rally are in place. If required, the lead car must be prepared to set up alternative arrangements to ensure the continuity of the rally, i.e. detour signs, extra marshal or reposition marshal to direct competitors, or extra signage. The trail car should leave the start point 20 to 30 minutes after the departure of the last competitor and follow behind the last competitor picking up the rally signs and silent checks, closing the manned checks, helping with minor breakdowns and getting aid for major breakdowns. Backup vehicles and trailer support vehicles should all remain behind the last competitor. MOTORCYCLE RALLY ROUTE SHEETS To assist motorcyclists rally organisers should print the instructions on A4 paper with a 15mm margin on both sides of the paper and larger size print. Do not print too many instructions on the one line and print on one side of the paper only.

ELIGIBILITY All vehicles accepted for entry to an event must fit into the categories of eligible vehicles as defined in the Constitution Rules of the Vintage Car Club of New Zealand (Inc.) for the event being conducted. Currently, eligibility for branch events is not limited to vehicles that have been issued with VCC Vehicle Identity Cards (VICs), and there is also no limitation on eligibility to vehicles classified up to and including B4, as specified on the VCC VIC. Some branches may allow members to enter some events in non eligible vehicles, and that is their prerogative, based on their own policy, and in accordance with their own sound reasoning. VEHICLES MUST BE ENTERED BY: (i) A FINANCIAL MEMBER of the VINTAGE CAR CLUB of NZ(Inc.); or, (ii) If resident overseas, a member of a recognised overseas organisation; or, (iii) An invited guest of the branch for the duration of the rally.

The entrant must be in, or on, the vehicle for the duration of the event. VCC Members, or members of a recognised organisation, are required to carry their Membership Card and produce it if requested.

SECTION 20: D

12/6/2009 All of the following sections will be used as Rally Rules for all Branch,

National and International Rallies.

RALLY RULES AND INTERPRETATIONS ROADS TO BE USED A road is defined as being a Motorway, National State Highway, Provincial State Highway, Road, Street, Avenue, Crescent, Place, Drive, Parade, Lane and any other way to which a public motorist has access as of right. Private roads may be used subject to prior approval being obtained. The use of private roads must be clearly marked in the route instructions. A road may have any one of the following surfaces: - Bitumen, Concrete, Metal,Gravel, Shingle, Grass or Clay. CHECKS These will always be on the left hand side of the road. They shall not be on any busy road or in a position which creates a hazard for entrants and/or other road users. Manned and silent checks will be identified by a suitable sign, a sample of which shall be on display at the start of the rally.

(A) MANNED CHECKS These should be in lay-bys or other off road situations so as not to create a hazard for entrants and/or other road users. All manned checks will remain “open” until the arrival of the “trail car”, which will close the check. (This arrangement may be varied to suit the particulars of a rally.)

At a manned check each competitor must; (i) Stop past the check so as not to obscure the check sign. (ii) Park in accordance with traffic regulations. (iii) Report to the check marshal and produce your route card and time

piece if required. All entries made on the route card should be checked before leaving the check.

(iv) Carry out any further instructions given by the marshal before leaving the check.

(B)SILENT CHECKS These are unmanned checks which are identified by a clearly visible sign which contains a “code word”. These will be in a position not more than 3 metres from the left hand edge of the road, not hidden and will not create a hazard for entrants or other road users. At a silent check each competitor must:

(i) Record the silent check “code word” in the appropriate column of the route card when the sign is passed.

(ii) Carry out any special instructions that may be required at specific checks.

Page 87: B R A N C H M A N U A L - Vintage Car Club of New Zealandvcc.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vccnz_branchmanual__29052019.pdf · B R A N C H M A N U A L This Manual is the property

SECTION 20: E

12/6/2009 (C) MILEAGE CHECK Is a special silent check, or some other form of sign, used to calibrate your speedometer with the plotters and if a mileage check is used the start and finish points must be indicated by the appropriate signs.

(D) QUESTIONS These will always relate to something on the LEFT HAND side of the road ONLY and not on busy roads. They will be clearly visible and readable from the vehicle on the move and not be in a position which creates a hazard for entrants and/or other road users. (Remember that several vehicles may slow or stop at a point simultaneously.) These may be used in conjunction with silent checks or instead of silent checks.

AT THE QUESTION THE COMPETITOR MUST: i) Record the answer in the appropriate place on the route card ii) Carry out any special instructions that may be required at specific questions.

TIMING May be “Official Time”, i.e. true time of day, including daylight saving if applicable, or “Rally Time” a special time set up by the Rally Organiser. In either case, a clock will be set up at the rally start point so that competitors have a clear indication of the timing system being used. Competitors may be required to carry a time piece with the vehicle, set to rally time, which must be produced on demand by officials. The timed section of any trial or rally is not to be set on Main Arterial Routes (unless the speed is set at “Highway Speed”), as slower speeds can create a hazard for entrants and/or other road users or create convoys and this must be avoided at all times.

RALLY ROUTE INSTRUCTIONS

These will be accurate, precise and simple and shall not include any instructions designed to confuse or deceive the competitors. If maps are needed they should be supplied or competitors must be advised beforehand which maps are required for the rally. ORDER of PRIORITY for instructions used in rallies (A) ROADSIDE INSTRUCTIONS

Shall take priority over all other types of instructions. They shall consist of route e.g. NO ROAD, NO EXIT or DIRECTIONAL ARROWS.

(B) OVERRIDING INSTRUCTIONS

Shall have the next highest priority. These are written instructions at the top of rally sheets, or are handed out at a manned check by marshals giving special instructions that override normal rally instructions i.e. NO EXIT roads do not exist in the morning section or at silent check “NUT” U turn and reconsider.

(C) ROUTE INSTRUCTIONS

Shall have the lowest priority. These are the instructions given to the entrants on their rally route sheets to guide them along the rally route. They may include “written”, “straight line”, “tulip”, “map references” or other methods of instruction.

SECTION 20: F

12/6/2009 ROAD BLOCKS and DELAYS

(A) If delayed by circumstances beyond your control in a rally, you will not make up the time lost, but will run late for the remainder of the section and report to the marshal at the next checkpoint with the reason for and the time of the actual delay involved. At the discretion of the organisers, such delays will not be penalised.

(B) No claims will be allowed for mechanical failures.

(C) In the case of an accident involving injury to anyone, you must stop and

render all possible aid. Time lost will entail a penalty no greater than the least loss suffered by any other competitor in that section.

(D) If delayed by tyre failure, an allowance of 5 minutes will be made, provided

that the failure is reported to the marshal at the next manned check and that you run 5 minutes late for the remainder of the section.

(E) The organisers shall have the right to delete all or a portion of the penalty

points for any section should circumstances warrant it.

SECTION 20: G

12/6/2009 INTERSECTIONS Road junctions and intersections are defined as the meeting of any two or more roads.

(A) STRAIGHT AHEAD RULE Unless otherwise instructed you should always follow the line of least deviation, even if this means leaving the main road you are on and following a minor roadway.

(B) TURN RIGHT (or LEFT) Turn Right (or Left) onto an adjoining road lying at 90o (i.e. Right Angle) to the road on which you are travelling.

(C) BEAR RIGHT (or LEFT) By turning Right (or Left) onto a road that is at less than a right angle from the road being travelled on. (i.e. between 0o and 90o.)

(D) ACUTE RIGHT (or LEFT) By turning Right (or Left) onto a road that is more than a right angle from the road being travelled on. (i.e. between 90o and 180o.)

(E) KEEP RIGHT (or LEFT) Keep turning Right (or Left) at every opportunity until the instructions tell you otherwise. (There may be one or more intersections involved in the instruction.)

Page 90: B R A N C H M A N U A L - Vintage Car Club of New Zealandvcc.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vccnz_branchmanual__29052019.pdf · B R A N C H M A N U A L This Manual is the property

SECTION 20: H

12/6/2009 (F) “T” JUNCTION Turn (i.e. 90degrees) as directed either Right or Left. A junction can only be defined as a “T” when you have been travelling up the road forming the vertical leg of the “T” and the roads are at right angles to each other.

(G) “Y” JUNCTION When travelling up the vertical leg of a “Y” intersection and both roads being approached are approximately at equal angles. The instruction will be phrased “Bear Right” (or Left) or “Keep Right” (or Left) or “Right” (or Left) at Y.

(H) TRAFFIC ROUNDABOUTS Unless directed otherwise, continue through the roundabout in the same direction that you are travelling with the line of least deviation. If your path is to be altered you will be told which exit to take, e.g. take 3rd exit from roundabout.

(I) NEXT RIGHT (or LEFT) Take the first available road on the required side regardless of its angle. This instruction is used when none of the above instructions are clear.

Page 91: B R A N C H M A N U A L - Vintage Car Club of New Zealandvcc.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vccnz_branchmanual__29052019.pdf · B R A N C H M A N U A L This Manual is the property

SECTION 20: I

12/6/2009 Note At any intersection, which does not fall into any of the above categories, the instructions should be clear and concise to describe the change of route. STRAIGHT LINE NAVIGATION The route to be taken is shown as a solid line drawn on the page starting from a dot (start) working towards an arrowhead (finish). You must avoid all other roads and these are shown to the left and right of the straight line. During Straight-Line navigation the “Straight Ahead Rule” does not apply. At each intersection a decision must be made as to which road you will continue on. Only one instruction is given at each intersection and it must show every road at the intersection, (only the presence of a road is shown not its angle). A road, shown to the left of the straight line, means you must keep a road on your left. To do this, as you pass through the intersection leave one road on your left unused. The same applies to an instruction, which shows a road on the right, you leave a road on the right. Roads shown on both sides of the straight line indicate a cross road at which you are to proceed straight ahead, leaving one road on your left and one road on your right. Roundabouts are shown the same as any other intersection, as you can only go one way around the roundabout and the only choice is, which road is to be used when you exit the intersection.

The diagrams illustrate how Straight Line navigation works on a rally. Note The only times when straight line navigation should not be used, are those intersections where it is not clear how many roads are included in the intersection, e.g. a large roundabout with high plants growing in the central island, or where it is not clear whether an alley way or entrance, etc. is an acceptable roadway.

12/6/2009

TULIP NAVIGATION The Tulip Navigation system consists of a diagrammatical form of showing the route to be followed on a rally. You must only change direction where shown by a tulip diagram. At all other intersections, the Straight Ahead Rule applies. Tulips are usually numbered

Page 92: B R A N C H M A N U A L - Vintage Car Club of New Zealandvcc.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vccnz_branchmanual__29052019.pdf · B R A N C H M A N U A L This Manual is the property

SECTION 20: J

12/6/2009 to give them a sequence, but the numbers may be jumbled up and they may be depicted upside down or sideways in the rally route instructions. They may be drawn very simply or may show intersections with great detail, depending mainly on the skills of the rally plotter, either way follow the directions shown. The tulip diagram may have drawn on it special features to differentiate one intersection from another, so the first intersection approached may not be the one intended. Look carefully and match up all the given data. The dot indicates your vehicle at the start of the intersection and the arrowhead the direction or route to take.

Although you are looking for a right turn, you would pass the first two looking for an intersection with the correct finger sign board and the farmers barn, only the third intersection fits all the required features.

Tulip No1 is a right turn in the centre of a left hand curve, but No2 is a left turn in the centre of a right hand curve. Turn the page around to get the correct orientation. No3 shows the particular route the rally plotter expects you to follow.

SECTION 20: K

12/6/2009 RETIREMENTS If you are unable to complete a rally for any reason, you should endeavour to inform the next manned check or the organisers that you have retired. ROAD COURTESY If you are aware that you are holding back other traffic, especially non competitors, it is courtesy to pull over to the left hand side of the road as quickly as it is safe to do so and if necessary stop, to clear the road. Club members should also avoid travelling in large convoys or groups as this can hinder the flow of traffic on the road. At all times show utmost courtesy to other road users. Our Club reputation is on the line if we cause disruptions to other travellers. Remember that you have a rear view mirror so please use it at all times.

PENALTIES (i) Failing to start on time 1 pt per min (ii) Early or late arrival at a time check 1 pt per min

(If within 1 min of correct time usually no penalty) (iii) Stopping or loitering within sight of a manned check 10 pts (iv) Missing on course manned check 50 pts (v) Finding off course manned check 50 pts (vi) Missing on course silent check 30 pts (vii) Finding off course silent check 30 pts (viii) Breach of Traffic Regulations 10 pts (ix) Breach of these rules 10 pts (x) Conduct which in the opinion of the Rally Organisers has or may bring

disrepute on the VCC Disqualification (xi) The use of computerised or electronic navigational equipment

Disqualification

DISQUALIFICATION Disqualification is a very serious step to take and must be carried out with DUE DILIGENCE. Before a person can be “Disqualified” two (2) of the persons organizing the event will need to conduct an interview with the Complainant/s followed by an interview with the Accused person/s. Following this a decision can be made and preferably with the whole proceedings recorded. FINAL COMMENT Remember the Rally Organizer has put many hours, often at no payment, into planning the route. Be courteous to the marshals, remember they are volunteers, and to all the other people we share the roads with. Finally enjoy the environment, the rally, driving your vehicle and the companionship of your fellow members.

SECTION 20: O

13/11/2017

GYMKHANAS, GRASSKHANAS, DRIVING TESTS AND POMEROY TROPHY EVENT

This type of event is not a Speed Event and does not require a VCC Speed Event Permit. However the Speed Steward can be contacted for help or advice. Even though the event may be held on private property a “duty of care” rests on the organiser(s) for the safety of spectators and participants. Spectator areas should be set aside and clearly marked by signs, tapes or bales. These areas should be well clear of the competition areas. Remember a car out of control on wet grass can travel a very long way. Appoint a “Spectator Marshal” to keep an eye on wandering people or animals. It is amazing how valuable sometimes a “show” or “working” dog can be. Any areas not being used for trials etc but might be used for tuning or testing should be carefully checked for holes, ditches and other obstructions. These should then be marked in some way. The fibreglass poles and flags used as markers for bicycles are ideal for this. A fire extinguisher must be handy. You can quite easily write what you have planned to do and file it in the branch records. This is the “safety plan” which will serve to show that you thought about the safety aspects of the event and should protect you from charges of negligence should there be an accident involving injury.

POMEROY TROPHY REGULATORY Preamble: Regularity Trials are a variation of the rules, to allow members to run their vehicles for the enjoyment of themselves and the spectators. It is a competition being a trial of regularity, not outright speed. As such, it is exempted from some of the requirements of race competition. Determination: The winner of the competition shall be the competitor who records a total event time closest to the time nominated by the organiser, prior to the commencement of the competition, with minimum variation between lap times. Eligible Vehicles: Vehicles eligible to take part in regularity trials shall be those complying with VCC Categories as stipulated in the Club’s Constitution. Event Starting: Vehicles will be assembled on the starting grid in the usual manner. Each row of two vehicles will be started individually at a time interval of not less than two seconds between rows. Competitor Requirements: Competitors will be required to hold as a minimum a NZ drivers licence or acceptable overseas licence. Unlicenced drivers require the approval of the National Speed Steward. Please note that unlicenced drivers will not be able to partake in the road section of a Pomeroy Event. No passengers may be carried except on the road section. Safety Equipment: Drivers must wear safety apparel that as a minimum is as specified in Section 23H of the VCC Branch Manual.

SECTION 21: D 21/03/2017

Sponsorship Sponsorship for the event can be sought by the organising branch, but individual sponsorship in excess of $2,000 in value must have approval of the VCC Management Committee. Due caution must be taken to ensure that any sponsorship arrangements do not conflict with national arrangements. Branches are not to approach Vero or any other insurance company directly for sponsorship or merchandise without the written approval of the VCC Management Committee.

Official Guests It is up to the Branch and Organising Committee to decide what official guests they want to attend at all or any part of the event. A. VCC –As a National event is hosted on behalf of the Club, it is required protocol that the

National President and partner (or a representative and partner nominated by the National President) be invited to attend as the guest of the Branch/Rally. The invitation should be in writing and include all complementary fees/charges and what is expected from the guest (e.g. presentation of trophies etc) and sent to the National President via the National Office. Travel costs to the event are the responsibility of the National Office. All other expenses are the responsibility of the host Branch/Rally e.g. accommodation, meals, entry fees. (Hosting by Branch members is quite acceptable.)

Others – Other official guests may or may not include the local mayor, a major sponsor and others as seen appropriate. Invitations made to any other official guests should be in writing stating the nature of the event or part of the event to which they are invited and ideally the invitation should include the date and time, and any duties or function expected of the guest at the event. The costs of other official guests attending all or part of the event including any dinner or function should be borne by the rally funds and should be budgeted for. Therefore it is recommended that numbers of official guests be kept to a minimum level. Advertising For National events advertising free of charge is available in the VCC magazine Beaded

Wheels. In practice this is normally limited to no more than a quarter page in each of three issues. Entry Forms can also be distributed via Beaded Wheels, however there is a charge for this service and this needs to be checked out first with the Beaded Wheels Committee. Most Branch magazines also offer event advertising and copies of the entry forms can be sent to the National Office to be sent to each branch via the National Office weekly mail out. Beaded Wheels The Branch will forward an editorial item, including photographs, of the event to the Beaded Wheels editorial staff within 60 days. Archives The Branch is to ensure that suitable items and memorabilia, including a rally plaque, are forwarded to National Archives following the event.

03/07/2007

International Rally Guidelines

These guidelines must generally be adhered to, however variations may be

considered from time to time if required. Any variations are subject to

approval by the National President.

Calling for rally: From time to time the Management Committee of the Vintage Car Club of New Zealand (Inc.) will decide to call for interested parties to hold an International Rally.

Timing: There is no set period between consecutive rallies, however in the past they have generally been held at intervals of 4 – 7 years. These may coincide with a significant event for the club, such as a notable birthday i.e. 25 years, 50 years, 60 years etc or a significant event such as a new millennium. Historically International Rallies have been held alternately between the North and South Island. However there are no set rules for this.

Calling for applicants: The VCC president will call for interested Branches to forward proposals for the hosting of such an event in their region. Proposals will be evaluated and adjudicated on by a selection committee. It is mandatory for VCC Branches applying to forward a written proposal for the event to be held in their area. Branch Proposal: The Branch proposal should cover, but is not limited to the following: A Timing of the Rally:

Proposed year and dates B Headquarters venue:

Suitability Access - vehicular, people, particularly those with disabilities Facilities for large numbers of people - toilets etc, Entertainment areas

C Catering: Past experience with large numbers Cost Variety

D Accommodation: Capacity Variety (camps, motels hotels) Cost

The results of the adjudication will be reported in writing to the Management Committee for ratification before an announcement is made to the VCC membership.

The formal part of the function could be a welcome speech and a response from one of the guests may be appropriate. This is open only to those mentioned above and not New Zealand resident members.

11/09/2015 Information for Beaded Wheels Reporters Beaded Wheels has come a long way from the days of the Guff Sheet to the glossy magazine we see today. As well as providing an avenue for communication between branches and members the magazine plays an important role in providing a public record and is a valuable tool for promoting the VCC and its activities to the New Zealand public. Branch Reporter – position description The branch reporter is a very important member of the branch committee. The reporter is the only person to choose what is recorded about the branch through the medium of Beaded

Wheels. Others come and go, but the words of the reporter live on after they hand over the job. You are all historians for your branches. As a magazine sold to the general public and mailed to subscribers overseas, Beaded

Wheels requires a higher standard of thought and writing than might be acceptable for a branch newsletter. For example, in a branch newsletter you might get away with reporting that ”Charlie’s Buick broke a crankshaft”, but those in other branches will have no idea who Charlie is without a surname. Missing names and vehicle descriptions are commonplace in reports we receive. Possibly the worst “sin” of reports when they arrive is that they contain more about the weather and the excellence of the afternoon teas than the qualities of the vehicles and the rallies! Sometimes reporters write about a single run or event that they personally attended, seemingly with little attempt to find out about branch events that they may have missed. The editorial committee have no way of knowing if branch information is irrelevant or if important information has been omitted. In order to ensure your branch gains maximum benefit through the Idle Torque pages the Beaded Wheels editorial committee would appreciate all branch reporters taking time to review their reports within the context of the revised guidelines we have provided.

Idle Torque Guidelines • Please limit your text to up to 250 words. Feel free to provide photos with captions. • Photos supplied should be high resolution digital and include full captions of the event

and vehicles featured, full names of any members featured. • Write mainly about the motoring elements of events. • Write about any competitive element. • Include new members and their vehicles • Use first name and surname when referring to people. • Write about the people and the cars they are driving or restoring or acquiring or

selling. • Write about the interesting destinations, collections, museums, homesteads and

historic sites. But always keep in mind we are a car club. Reports dwelling heavily on matters secondary to the club activities will be cut, no matter how nice a time those on the run had at the historic winery.

• Remember that branch refers to branches of the VCC and club refers to the VCC generally. Often club is used when it should be branch.

• Restrict lists of results to winners only. Long lists of seconds, thirds, best dressed and also-rans can take up a lot of space.

Section 26:

D

11/09/2015

• Keep branch/club night activity descriptions brief. There is not the space for detailed description of speakers and events.

• Include branch achievements and awards, e.g. 25 and 35 year awards. Fifty year awards are covered separately in their own section of the magazine.

• Avoid reports that are nothing but a list and order of local roads taken on a rally. Road names will mean little to readers out of your district. How the cars and participants coped with the challenges of a run are more important and interesting.

• Avoid ending with lists of thank-yous to organisers, sponsors, marshalls and barbeque operators. We all know our events hang on a small army of selfless helpers.

• Don’t write about the weather unless it has a real relevance. (e.g. it rained heavily on a run exclusively for open cars). Yes, we do understand the weather impacts on our enjoyment of rallying. We’re simply asking you to view what you write from our readers’ position when faced with branch reports, most of which make reference to the weather!

• Don’t write about the quality or abundance of food, or the afternoon teas, or the sumptuous spread courtesy of the Women’s Division of Federated Farmers. We know New Zealanders are hospitable. One report might be tolerable but thirty-odd reports on catering delights are not what we are about.

• Do not include “in” jokes, e.g. references to names, happenings etc that would not be understood by members outside your branch.

• Before you begin writing, organise your thoughts around the points you wish to make and the order in which to make them. Use short sentences containing a single idea, rather than long complicated sentences. There’s nothing wrong with a bubbly, chatty style, but be aware people do not read text as they speak in conversation.

• Read your finished effort out loud. This will often show up errors in construction. • Last ... and most importantly ... ALWAYS get someone else to read your Idle Torque

report before posting or hitting the send button.

And a few phrases (clichés) we’d prefer not to see .... a good time was had by all ... .... all eyes were on the weather ... .... the event was well attended ... .... greeted by a magnificent afternoon tea ... .... the trials and tribulations of ... .... much mirth was had ... ... The day dawned.....whatever..... sunny, rainy etc .... and we lingered there ... .... lots of treasures were found ... .... a rewarding day was had by all ... .... which looked a picture ... .... made for a very good weekend ... .... our thanks go to all outgoing office holders... One final point If you know your branch has been inactive and there really is nothing relevant to report, there is no dishonour in not filing a report and advising Beaded Wheels that nothing will be coming. We will happily respect that decision.

11/09/2015 Guidelines for Other Contributions Beaded Wheels is not the place to publish detailed reports of every rally your branch holds (your local newsletter is a much better forum), However Beaded Wheels would like to publish at least one article from every branch at some stage of the year. These don't need to be rally reports, it could be on a restoration, a brief history of a local branch member or identity or a history of an interesting vehicle in your branch. Articles in a more technical vein or a contribution to the Behind the Wheel column are always welcome. If there is something that is taking up a lot of space in your Idle Torque report then consider sending it separately as a feature article, Most features tend to be a minimum of one page (including some photographs) however they can be smaller. The criteria is:

• Do you think the event warrants coverage in the club national magazine? • Is it of interest to VCC members outside your branch? • Is it well supported with good quality photographs?

Death Notices In this column we would like to list those members who have died since the last issue of the magazine. Please supply - name and branch. Obituaries These will be restricted to nationally known members. Obituaries should be forwarded to Beaded Wheels by the branch secretary and should include the birth and death dates, a recent photo of the deceased and the author of the obituary. FEATURE ARTICLES Supply the authors name, photographer(s) name and captions for each photograph

Rally Reports If your branch has a major event that they would like to promote, consider writing a feature article for Beaded Wheels and incorporate some great colour photographs. If you do decide to submit a rally article as a feature report try and convey a sense of the event through descriptions of the terrain and the motoring, camaraderie, small amusing incidents, interesting or unusual sights etc. This is not a reconstruction of the route that you followed but a reason as to why this was such a good event.

Restoration reports An interesting restoration makes a great article in Beaded Wheels especially if it is supported with photographs taken along the way,

Section 29: A

21/05/2019

GUIDELINES FOR HOSTING ANNUAL CONFERENCES SELECTION OF HOST BRANCH Branches are invited to put themselves forward as candidates to host the annual conference, preferably well in advance of the desired time. Should more than one Branch seek the same meeting, the Branch representatives are asked to make a presentation to the National Executive, three years prior to the desired date, which is the earliest a date will be ratified. Delegates will vote as to which Branch is to host the conference. It is usual for the conference to alternate between Islands, but this is not compulsory and could be varied should circumstances warrant it. After consultation with the National Office, the dates will be set. Constitutionally, it is held during the month of August and is more suited to the 1st or 2nd weekend of the month. Consideration must be given to other activities taking place that may cause travel and accommodation difficulties. DESIRABILITY OF HOSTING CONFERENCE A lot of planning and activity on the weekend concerned is involved. However, hosting of the conference is a worthwhile experience for all Branches. It gives Branches the opportunity to publicise themselves and their locality to delegates and members from all over the country, while their own members can be encouraged to see how the Club administration works. Small Branches therefore have much to offer and should not let their size or geographical isolation necessarily deter them from making a bid. PLANNING TEAM It is strongly recommended that a Planning Team should be formed before making a bid so that their presentation to the Executive can include details of such practical aspects as availability of venues and catering, accommodation, transport connections as well as the attractions of the area, enthusiasm of Branch etc. INITIAL PLANNING AFTER AWARDING OF CONFERENCE Attendance at the conference tends to average around 120. It is therefore important that the venue chosen will cater for the level of attendance with a margin to cover for a higher number possibly turning up for the Annual General Meeting. It should be suitable for the serving of refreshments to participants. It is usual to advise accommodation options, so early inquiries should be made to ensure an adequate level of accommodation can be secured. Group bookings will often be encouraged for a reduced room rate. Thought should be given to the offering of billets to visiting delegates and what other range of accommodation is to be offered. Attendance at prior AGM/Executive meetings may make the job easier by assisting with ideas and things to avoid. Be prepared to address the meeting at the AGM a year prior to your hosting, to briefly outline the activities in store and invite the attendance of all those present. A run down and reminder of what has been organised should also be given at the March Executive Meeting, before your AGM. NOTE: It is important that costs are kept to a minimum to encourage as many members, whether local or from around New Zealand, to attend. Members should be encouraged to drive their VCC eligible vehicle to the conference where possible and it is also desirable for attendees arriving by air to be picked up from the airport in a VCC eligible vehicle.

Section 29: B

21/05/2019 PROGRAMME FOR WEEKEND In recent years it has been the practice to adopt a format along the following lines: Friday afternoon Transport is arranged to meet delegates/members at the airport and transport them to their accommodation. Welcome and registration takes place. Informal dinner, either all together or delegates/members to make their own arrangements. Friday Evening Executive Meeting Host Branch Chairman welcomes delegates etc Hosting Branch explain details relating to transport and meals over the weekend. Executive Meeting (which covers about half of the Executive Business) starts 7.30pm and finishes between 9.00 - 9.30pm Saturday Morning Annual General Meeting Annual General Meeting starts at 9.00 am Hosting Branch repeat details of transport and meals etc over the weekend for those who were not present at the Friday Evening Executive Meeting, and/or are attending the AGM only. Local dignitary (Mayor or local person of standing) usually asked to open the conference. Morning tea approximately 10.30am. The National Body will pay for morning tea (a GST invoice to be submitted to National Office for payment). Numbers should be obtained off the registration list. Smorgasbord Lunch approximately 12.30pm (refer costs) Saturday Afternoon Annual General Meeting continues, if required. At end of AGM, the Executive Meeting is reconvened to complete outstanding business, closing with afternoon tea. Bus tour for those not attending the Executive Meeting – during the Executive Meeting. (refer costs). Saturday Evening Dinner and social function with local members. The branch may wish to invite a special guest speaker. Any additional costs should be built into the overall registration, keeping in mind that costs should be kept to a minimum. Often a theme is attached to the evening. Sunday Clubroom visit, parts department opened, local garage tour etc. Transport arranged to return delegates back to the airport. If a Branch wishes to alter the format of the weekend, they must consult with the National Office with final approval given by the National Secretary/Treasurer. Note: Any club member is entitled to attend the AGM and has full speaking and voting rights at the meeting. You can NOT turn away any member unless there is a reasonable reason (ie venue

capacity has been reached with all those who have registered)

TRANSPORT Usually delegates from some distance away will travel by air and those closer to home by road. The Delegates branch will arrange their travel arrangements. The host Branch will have the responsibility to organise local transport for those attendees arriving by air. An area distant from an airport or with inadequate connections to the rest of the country will need to consider such ideas as bus or train connections from larger centres.

Page 153: B R A N C H M A N U A L - Vintage Car Club of New Zealandvcc.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vccnz_branchmanual__29052019.pdf · B R A N C H M A N U A L This Manual is the property

Section 29: C

21/05/2019 Similarly, the number of attendees without their own transport and the distance between accommodation and venues will dictate the mode of transport to be used. Several mini-buses seating 9 to 12 people have been very successful, as has the use of larger coaches in other circumstances. Finding a venue that covers accommodation, meeting venue and meal venue can substantially reduce the transport requirement and in the case of Hotels/Lodges, the meeting room is often provided free of charge. The critical need is to ensure that transport is co-ordinated for: -

1) Airport collection. 2) Accommodation to venue and return during weekend. 3) Garage visits etc. 4) Airport delivery.

Costs can frequently be kept down by voluntary use of members’ vehicles and it can be a particularly well appreciated touch if members Club vehicles are brought into use. PHOTOGRAPHS / BEADED WHEELS The branch is required to arrange professional photographs to be taken after the AGM of the Management Committee for the following year plus recipients of awards. An article/report regarding the conference weekend is to be written for Beaded Wheels. Evening photos also assist with the article/report. Photos must be of high quality. If no volunteer is available, discussions should be held with the National Office with the possibility of hiring a photographer. PERSONAL TOUCHES There is always plenty of room for these: • Welcoming groups on the road into town. • Small welcoming gifts at the accommodation venues. • Displays of slides and photographs of local members vehicles. • Displays of vehicles. • Videos of Rallies etc. (Home grown entertainment). There are numerous opportunities to display your Branch's individuality. SUGGESTIONS 1. Sponsorship - printing and give-aways for delegates registration packs i.e. pens, note pads. 2. Careful co-ordination of accommodation/venue to minimise costs. 3. Volunteer assistance - transport, provision of meals, loan of equipment like sound systems,

display equipment, chairs, tables etc. are all possibilities. 4. Subsidisation of hospitality - some Branches have run raffles, auctions and undertaken other

fundraising and used the proceeds to subsidise Conference costs. In making all these suggestions it is recognised that some Branches will not have the resources available, and these suggestions will be impractical. It is usual to charge a Registration Fee to cover all the costs incurred, with the facility for members to select participation and payment for only some elements if desired. It should be noted that no fees should be charged for attendance at the meetings.

Section 29: E

21/05/2019 MEETING VENUE The Executive Meeting must be able to seat the delegates “classroom style”. Where possible, spare seats are to be placed to the side and back of the room for those non-delegates who wish to sit in and observe the meeting. National Office will reserve some front seats for Club Life Members who are attending, and anyone making a report, who may not be an Executive Member and already sitting at a table. See above diagrams.

The Annual General Meeting seating differs slightly. Members must have the opportunity to sit at the front (in front of the Branch Delegates (Executive)). The Executive members still require tables as they are charged with taking notes to pass on to their branch. Where possible, utilize the same room, and the venue staff will alter the seating on the Friday evening following the Executive Meeting, ready for Saturday morning. The top tables should be elevated (at a minimum, the middle top table). They should all have table cloths. Allow enough space for book work and make sure no one is required to sit on either side of a table leg. The middle table must have a table microphone. (refer further to “Microphones” for full

requirements) Projector/Screen: The venue should have the screen for presentations, at the front, to one side, with the table requiring the projector, at an easily accessed spot (if not built in). Microphones: One “Desk” microphone is to be placed on the middle top table. Two “Roaming” microphones are required and will be managed by two members of the hosting branch.

The role of handing the microphones out is an important one. You should not blow into Microphones. A light tap will indicate if it is working. The roaming Microphones work through a frequency station therefore there can be a slight delay when turning them on, while they recognise their station. We recommend (a) turn them on before handing them over and advising they are one. (b) advise the speaker to talk into the top and state their name and branch. People should not play around with these. Turning them on and off can confuse them and is probably a major reason for our past issues. They should be talked into as if taking a sip from a glass of beer ie talk into the top, not the side. At times, a microphone on a podium is useful for guest speakers/presentations. This should be discussed with National Office. Do not replace any microphones with lapel microphones. General Needs: An area (wall space) should be available to display the Calendar of Events and Branch Officers for final approval. National Office pick up the hire cost for the venue, if necessary. This includes ancillary costs such as hire of furniture, sound system etc. Please remember, most venues catering for an entire conference, offer the meeting room free of charge. Use of Branch Clubrooms/facilities: Some Branches now have facilities available that are suitable for hosting a Conference and this should be considered. Banners/Branch name plaques: The banners showing the location of previous conferences are transported by the National Office. One large banner is ideally hung behind the President, Administration Manager and Secretary/Treasurer, with the smaller being placed at a suitable location. Assistance with hanging the banners will be required. Seating arrangements, placements and distribution of meeting material will be undertaken by the National Office.

Section 29: F

21/05/2019 Agenda and Reports for Executive Meeting: These will be produced and circulated by the National Office. There will be ‘Power Point’ presentations so the venue must provide an appropriate screen along with a projector. Agenda and Report for Annual General Meeting: The Agenda will be posted to all members through their annual mail out (which includes the President’s Annual Report and the Club’s Annual Financial Report). Individual reports for the AGM will be emailed to the hosting branch (approximately 11), three weeks prior to the meeting, as a pdf. These should be kept confidential

up until the conference weekend. National Office will advise the quantity required to be printed, with each set stapled. The cost of this will be covered by the National Office. They are inserted by the hosting branch, into each registration pack (normally one registration pack per couple), and extra’s will be put aside for those members just attending the AGM. REGISTRATIONS National Office will email the hosting branch, samples of previous registration forms which can be modified accordingly. Approval of the final registration form must be given by the Hon Secretary/Treasurer, via the National Office, before it will be distributed. National Office email this to all branches. A draft is attached. Themed Event: If the hosting branch chooses a themed event, this must be advised on the registration form so that all parties are aware well in advance, should they require an appropriate dress code. Acknowledgement of registrations: Must be sent to members as soon as possible, after receiving their registration. Many participants over the years have incorporated the Conference with a longer absence from home. Acknowledge items booked such as accommodation and transportation arrangements as appropriate. Attendance at the Annual General Meeting only: All those attending must register so as catering numbers are known for the morning tea, (costs picked up by the National Office upon receipt of a GST Tax invoice). Distribution of the Registration Forms: Arrangements should be made for registration forms to be distributed to all delegates and Secretaries via email, through the National Office. Allow a good eight weeks for registration with a closing date two weeks prior to the conference, thus allowing for finalisation of accommodation bookings and catering numbers. Late Registrations: There will always be late registrations. They are not encouraged, but a member cannot be turned away from attending the AGM. If it is too late to arrange catering, then they will need to be advised that they cannot participate in any meals. The AGM Agenda will have the closing date for registrations, but you should expect to still receive registrations after this time. The Executive members should have no excuse for a late registration, and branches can be chased up. With regard to general members, as you do not know who they could be, you can’t chase them up! Should the

venue’s capacity be full, and a member registers late (or just turns up on the day), there may be health

and safety issues in allowing them to attend. Management Committee: The National Office will register the Management Committee and partners along with Life Members. This will arrive in bulk and clearly identify each item being covered. Payment will be in full. A tax invoice/receipt should be forwarded to the National Office.

Section 29: G

21/05/2019 Honorary Life Members: When any of the Club Honorary Life members are attending the meeting, the Hosting Branch is asked to chaperone them from the moment they arrive (unless they advise differently). EG, assist with accommodation check in, make sure they are aware of the meal locations and are not left alone, particularly the Friday night which is not always a planned meal, and generally assist them where necessary. The National Office handles all accounts. Bus Trip: For those who are not part of the Executive, a bus trip is often planned. This starts after lunch, at the completion of the Annual General Meeting. Please note, there are times when the meeting may continue after lunch. This trip is a “user pay” highlight and at no cost to the National Body. Provision for Delegates: Consideration should be given to such items as name tags, maps, publicity material (folders can often be obtained from sponsoring groups, Public Relations Office etc.), pens and pads. COSTS Hosting Branches must be ever conscious that the escalation of costs is likely to result in a low attendance at their Conference and consequently innovative approaches to providing a memorable event at the lowest possible cost is likely to reap the greatest rewards. Meal costs should be kept to a minimum. There should be no expense to the Branch, however any additional give-aways are not covered by the National Body. HOSTING BRANCH RESPONSIBILITY Hosting Branches are generally responsible for developing the planning, running the proceedings, producing the registration form, setting charges (charges require final approval by the National Secretary/Treasurer and should be obtained early in the process) and the processing of all registrations. NATIONAL OFFICE RESPONSIBILITY The National Office is responsible for the following:

1) Making sure the National Secretary/Treasurer approves the costs and registration form 2) Emailing of the final registration form to all branches 3) Placing the Notice of Meeting in Beaded Wheels (branch to have advised venue details by 20th

February of the relevant year) 4) Arrange accommodation for Management Committee and selected others (after advice provided

by the Hosting Branch) 5) Registration of the Management committee/Partners, Life Members and selected others. 6) Arranging for presentation of trophies for the AGM 7) Assistance and advice over any matter of concern- contact the Office Manager. 8) A watching brief that the organisation is on target.

EXECUTIVE MEETINGS - ADVICE TO DELEGATES WHO ARE THE DELEGATES Each Branch has a delegate (who may be the Branch Chairman) or a substitute branch member for the delegate appointed by the branch committee (all of whom must be financial members of the branch they represent who have been elected by such Branch in accordance with their Constitution or Rules). A Branch may choose to send an observer(s), but they will not necessarily be sitting at the table with their delegate. Any member may attend the meetings and request speaking rights from the President/Chairperson, who will grant those rights depending upon circumstances. EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT The National Body reimburses all travel costs for the branch delegate. This reimbursement is for the most direct and cost effective form of travel i.e. if it would be cheaper to fly but the delegate chooses to drive, only the equivalent cost of the return air fare will be reimbursed (less GST). Any other expenses, such as, accommodation and meals, are the responsibility of the Branch. ABOUT THE MEETINGS Two Executive Meetings are held annually, the first usually in March and the second in conjunction with the AGM in August. The March meeting will rotate between Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland. It is held on a Saturday and attendance is generally only required for the day, (although subject to travel requirements, Friday night and/or Saturday night accommodation may need to be made available). The Management Committee has been granted authority by the Executive to hold a two day Executive Meeting in March, should the need arise. The meeting commences around 10.00 am and runs until around 5.00 pm with a catered lunch break. Club business is discussed at the March Executive Meeting, in particular, any “Notices of Motion” which have been put forward for postal voting by the membership, to alter the Constitution, which are voted on in time for results being notified at the AGM. Delegates are then able to return to their Branches and inform members of the intentions of the proposed changes. Progress on specific committee reports are given and delegates should raise any matters of concern within their area. The March meeting will often hold a "workshop" on a current topic. The August Executive Meeting starts on the Friday evening prior to the AGM and is completed during the afternoon after the AGM. Therefore, Delegates should arrive at the venue on Friday evening ready for the meeting to commence at 7.30pm, and stay until late Saturday afternoon. The Budget is ratified at this Executive Meeting and the setting of the National Levy portion of the annual subscription is confirmed. Social functions are arranged in conjunction with the Conference weekend and are elective.

Section 30: B

10/09/2015 REGISTRATION Registration forms are circulated prior to the meeting and it is important, for the benefit of the host Branch and National Office that these are returned by the close off date so that numbers may be finalised for catering, accommodation etc. The branches are responsible for arranging their delegate's travel to Club meetings at the most effective rates. The Club will reimburse the travel expenses of either ground travel at current rates or airfares, whichever the cheaper, provided any airfares are booked no later than 28 days prior the meeting. Refer to Section 35 for

further details.

ACCOUNTABILITY TO MEMBERS Prior to the meetings, the Branch delegate should seek their branch opinion on any items on the Agenda and any items they would like raised. Delegates should report back to members at the first Branch meeting, on what has transpired at the Executive Meeting. It is important that members are informed on matters of concern to the Club as a whole and are able to make an informed vote. A written report for your newsletter is a useful way to inform all members. Therefore, Branches should attempt to have at least one representative at each meeting. PLEASE REMEMBER – YOU ARE REPRESENTING YOUR BRANCH MEMBERS AND MUST BE CONVEYING YOUR BRANCH OPINION WHEN VOTING.

CALENDAR OF EVENTS Preparation of the Calendar of Events is carried out annually as follows:- 1. A request for events each branch wishes to place on the Calendar is sent out from the

National Office in March each year. 2. The submission is made by way of a prescribed form (see sample) being sent for completion. 3. The form should be returned by 30 June to allow time for preparation and circulation prior to

the AGM 4. A draft of events proposal is sent out with the Agenda for the Annual Conference so that

branches may consider any clashes of dates. 5. A draft of the Calendar is on display at the Conference and after discussion and registration

where appropriate is ratified by the National Executive and Annual General Meeting. 6. After ratification it is printed and distributed to each member as a supplement to the

October/November issue of Beaded Wheels. 7. Branches should only place their main events on the Calendar, those of a nature that

members of other Branches may wish to participate in and any National rally. 8. It should be noted that the National Executive does not allocate dates for Branch events.

The Calendar exists as a service to members and Branches with setting of the Calendar providing the opportunity to avoid clashes. National or North and South Island events are subject to Executive allocation however and Branch events that would clash with these will not be placed on the Calendar.

9. Application for long-term National Events should be made in writing to the National Office. (Shown further on in this section)

Change of date of Calendar Events

10. Once a date of an event has been ratified as above it should not be changed except in

exceptional circumstances. 11. If a branch finds that the date of an event must be changed, they should try to choose a date

that is not likely to affect another branch. 12. In any case the branch should apply in writing to any other branches in the region, which

have calendar events on the same date and copy to the appropriate regional Club Captain not less than 2 months before the proposed date of the event. The application should set out the reasons for the change. The regional Club Captain shall act as arbitrator between affected branches and, depending on the response from other branches, may decline or refuse the application and/or suggest another date that is satisfactory to all branches likely to be affected by the proposed change of date.

PROCEDURE FOR SECURING LONG TERM NATIONAL EVENTS

Long term calendar of events is decided at Executive Meetings. 1. Branches intending to stage a National, North or South Island Event are required to give

notice of their intention in writing, to the National Office, no earlier than four years prior to the event.

2. All such notices of intention will be read at the forthcoming Executive Meeting held at the

time of the Annual Conference, where some discussion may take place with other Branches who may have intended securing that date for a similar event.

3. The bid for an event will be placed on the Long Term Calendar. This only shows the

intention of that branch to host an event. 4. Any such Branch would then be required to apply in writing so each case could be

judged on its merits at the following Executive Meeting at the time of the Annual Conference.

5. Each applicant Branch would be given the opportunity to state its case on its own merits

and the members attending such an Executive Meeting at the time of the Annual Conference would be asked to vote in favour of one particular applicant. There can be no guarantee that the first Branch to make application would be the successful Branch in the ballot.

6. Such a ballot and decision would take place at the Executive Meeting at the time of the

Annual Conference of the Club, three years prior to the intended date and such a decision shall be achieved by a majority vote.

7. Where a branch wishes to instigate a type of event which has never held prior National

status, this must first be applied for in writing, to the Management Committee for consideration and if agreed by the Management Committee it will require ratification by the Executive.

8. Provided that if no notices of intention are received in the time frame laid down then any

Branch who wishes to hold a National, North or South Island Event may do so by giving notice at any Executive Meeting.

PLEASE NOTE: Questions on availability should be directed to the National Office. Most International and National events alternate on a yearly basis between the North and South Island.

BRANCH LEVIES The Branch Levy is the amount required by each Branch, per member, in order to operate their affairs and is decided by each Branch annually, usually at their AGM The National Body collects this levy on the branches behalf and direct credits it to the Branch monthly as members pay their subscription. A form requesting the amount to be collected on behalf of the branch is sent out annually. The Membership Year runs from 1 November to 31 October therefore a request would be sent to branches approximately June annually. If you wish to make an alteration, the form MUST be returned by the REQUESTED DATE GIVEN BY THE NATIONAL OFFICE, or invoices will be sent at the previous rate. The National Office will confirm any request for changes within a week of receiving the notification, by email. It should be noted that a member is not deemed to be financial until both the current subscription and branch levy are paid.

TRAVEL FUND AND REIMBURSEMENT Travel reimbursement funds are budgeted into the Club expenditure to enable a delegate from each branch to attend Executive Meetings. Reimbursement is for the cheapest net airfare or ground transport. Road transport is currently reimbursed at 60c per kilometre. Eg: Flight cost $230 less GST $204.44 or Ground transport 600 km @ .60 $360.00 The most that can be claimed is $204.44

There will in some instances also be the cost of driving to the airport you are flying from. Reimbursement can only be made on the prescribed form (page 35B) which can either be photocopied or requested from the National Office. All relevant receipts for TRAVEL, (i.e. bus, train, parking, taxi) should be included with the request for reimbursement. The supplier’s GST number must be displayed on the receipt. When claiming ground transport and your branch is not GST registered, please supply the petrol receipts used at the time. This allows the Club to claim that portion of GST (e.g. Ground = 200km X .60 = $120. You may have obtained $50 petrol so if you supply a GST petrol receipt for that $50, the Club can claim GST on $50 of the $120 being claimed). Branches registered for GST should provide their GST number on the reimbursement form. Reimbursement requests should be forwarded immediately after the meeting. With the financial year ending 31

st March, the National Office MUST receive Reimbursements for the

March Executive Meeting no later than the 31st March.

PLEASE NOTE: Ideas on saving money for the Club could include one branch, passing through another branches district, picking up those delegates also. If several delegates travel together in the same vehicle to the meeting, only ONE reimbursement claim should be submitted. At the 2009 August Executive Meeting a motion was passed making it the branches responsibility for arranging their delegate's travel to club meetings at the most effective rates. The Club will reimburse travel expenses of either ground travel at current rates or airfares, which ever the cheaper, provided any airfares are booked no later than 28 days prior to the meeting. This was to be reviewed in 24 months and has not altered. When booking flights, please ensure you allow enough time to be transported to and from the venue without having to arrive late, or leave early. If you choose to fly in/out on a different day, the hosting branch is not responsible for transporting you to your hotel or the venue, although this may be possible with their approval. Please make sure you obtain a GST Tax Invoice for travel, and for other incidentals you can claim from your branch, to attach to your reimbursement claim.

INSURANCE SCHEMES SCHEME FOR ELIGIBLE CLUB VEHICLES All vehicles entitled to be included in The Vintage Car Club of NZ (Inc.) criteria are eligible for the scheme provided they are not an every day use vehicle or used at all for business purposes. This is arranged through the Auckland offices of Vero Consumer Insurance Specialists. Quotes can be arranged by calling 0800 658 411 or emailing [email protected] The covers provided are; a) Full Comprehensive Accidental Damage for Restored Vehicles (i.e. including road use). b) Fire, Theft and Accidental Damage for Vehicles under Restoration (referred

to as 'Restoration/Storage Cover'). There is no road use cover under this. PREMIUMS The premiums VCC members receive are extremely favourable and are much cheaper than normal comprehensive motor vehicle insurance. A discount of 30% will be applied to the second and subsequent vehicles provided the vehicle with the highest company premium is taken as the first vehicle, and vehicles must be insured together on the same policy. This arrangement also applies to Motor Car and Motor Cycle policies. Joint members should insure all vehicles jointly or in the same name to maximise discounts. Subsequent purchases may be advised by email, telephone or letter. There is no need to fill in a proposal form. HOW DOES THE SCHEME OPERATE Telephone Vero CIS on free phone 0800 658 411 and they will take the details over the phone and supply an instant quotation. You can accept the quote over the phone and the policy will be in place straight away. The policy documents detailing the cover in place will then be posted to you. Should you receive an enquiry or request from a member, please suggest they telephone 0800 658 411 for a quotation. If the vehicle is being insured for “agreed value” arrange a time for the Branch Valuer(s) to make an inspection. The Branch Valuer(s) should complete and sign the VALUATION FOR INSURANCE form (see copy attached). The completed VALUATION FOR INSURANCE form should then be forwarded to Vero CIS or given to the member to send in with their application once received. The Branch Valuer can be one person, or a sub-committee appointed by the Branch Committee or the Branch Committee itself. THE VALUE SHOULD BE WHAT THE VEHICLE COULD SELL FOR IN NEW ZEALAND ASSUMING NORMAL MARKET CONDITIONS, i.e. where the average buyer and seller would agree on a price, NOT WHAT IT MAY COST TO RESTORE.

Section 36: B

09/10/2014 Vero CIS reserves the right to question any value they feel is unrealistic. If a vehicle is damaged by accident or fire to the extent of a total loss situation being established; a valuation of its PRE ACCIDENT VALUE at that time, is obtained and this is the amount payable to the member, OR the SUM INSURED whichever is the LESSER e.g. Sum Insured $10,000 Pre-Accident Value $13,000 Amount payable as total loss $10,000 This illustrates the importance of REGULAR REVIEWS of the sum insured on the member’s vehicle(s), in accordance with market values. Agreed value: The other option is to insure the vehicle for an agreed value but a valuation MUST be obtained as previously mentioned. This means that in the event of a total loss the agreed value is paid without any further valuations or cost justification. The premiums for agreed value are no greater than market value and therefore are a better option in most cases. When a vehicle is insured for agreed value a new valuation must be arranged with the Branch Valuer(s) every two years and prior to renewal of the insurance otherwise the policy will revert to market value. Total loss: In the event of a TOTAL LOSS, a member may elect to keep the wreck for the amount equal to the highest tender received by the insurers.

Section 36: C

09/10/2014 Examples: 1. The highest tender received by Vero is $2,400. If the member wished to retain the wreck at the tender value of $2,400 they would

receive the maximum payment of their sum insured $10,000, as the total does not exceed the $13,000 Pre-accident Value.

Pre-accident Value $13,000 Less Wreck Value $2,400 Balance $10,600 Maximum payment (Sum insured) $10,000 2. The highest tender received by Vero is $4,000. If the member wished to retain the wreck at the tender value of $4,000 they would

receive a payment of $9,000 which is the balance between the wreck and Pre-accident value of $13,000.

Pre-accident Value $13,000 Less Wreck Value $4,000 Balance $9,000 ======= AGENCY SCHEME FOR BUSINESS OTHER THAN CLUB VEHICLES Members wishing to place general insurance with Vero have the opportunity to assist their Branch and the Club as a whole. By advising Vero of their membership number and their Branch, members automatically receive discounted premiums on home, contents, boat, motorcycle and private motor policies. Members will receive a special package discount when insuring their house and contents together. The members Branch is paid a commission on each policy and members should become familiar with their Branch’s Agent Number (36F). Each time the policy is renewed the same discounts and commissions apply.

Continued discounted premiums are subject to maintaining current Club membership.

Section 40: A 05/12/2018

VCC 50 YEAR COMMEMORATIVE AWARD

ELIGIBILITY 1. To be eligible for the award, the proposed recipient, unless deceased, must be a current financial member of the Vintage

Car Club of New Zealand (Inc.) and have been a member of the Club for a minimum of 50 years as outlined in the background information below.

2. If a member who has satisfied the requirements in 1. becomes deceased before (a), a nomination for the award is made and/or (b), presentation of an approved award has taken place, then the following shall apply; (a) A nomination may still be made in the normal manner if personally sanctioned on the bottom of the nomination form by the spouse, partner or a family member of the nominee together with the details of the person who is to receive the award on the nominee's behalf if it is approved. (b) An award that has been approved but not presented before the recipient-member becomes deceased shall only be presented if this is requested in writing by the spouse, partner or a family member of the recipient together with the details of the person who is to receive the award on the recipient's behalf. In either of the scenarios described in 2. above, the format of any resultant Award Presentation shall be discussed and agreed between the Management Committee, the other parties to the nomination, and the branch of the deceased recipient-member. It will naturally differ from the procedure outlined below.

NOMINATION PROCEDURE 1. The member must be nominated and seconded by current Club Members, using the form provided in the Branch Manual.

Other details are to be provided as listed on the form, and a resumé prepared on the nominee’s membership of the Club in accordance with the guidelines also given on the form. The information about the nominee’s Club involvement is required for a presentation speech and for recording in the Club Archive, if it is approved.

2. The Branch concerned endorses the nomination form and forwards it together with the resumé to the National Office at least 3 months prior to the date of the intended presentation, so that the accuracy of the information can be confirmed, and the nomination considered by the Management Committee.

AWARD PROCEDURE 1. Branches can organise their own style of events but should be reminded of the importance of this award when making

these plans. The overriding consideration is that we are honouring the recipient in the most appropriate way. Branches also need to consider the part the recipient’s partner may have played in the recipient’s long-term membership of the Club and, if appropriate, a bouquet of flowers or similar would be a nice acknowledgement of their support.

2. The National Office will write to the Branch hosting the presentation function confirming that the award is to be made by the President or their designated nominee. The costs for the President/representative will be covered by the National Office, however assistance with accommodation/billeting, if required, is appreciated. The costs for the recipient and partner are to be met by the Branch.

3. The National Office will forward the laminated citation, certificate and 50-year badge to the branch. This is to be held for the presentation. Branches are to purchase a frame for the certificate and can claim a reimbursement from the Club up to a maximum of $10, upon receipt of a valid tax invoice.

4. The National Office will send out any required invitation to the recipient (and partner, if applicable) to attend the presentation, giving all the necessary details to allow arrangements to be made to attend the function. Recipients will be asked to RSVP direct to the Branch.

BACKGROUND 1. In August 1999, the Executive resolved “that The Vintage Car Club of New Zealand (Inc.) make a badge and certificate

available for presentation in recognition of 50 years association with The Vintage Car Club of NZ (Inc.), to be

administered at national level.” In accordance with the Executive’s resolution, this prestigious award is administered by the VCC Management Committee.

2. Initially, and in fairness to the very earliest members of the club to whom it applied, recognition was given to the “association” these members had with the Vintage Car Club movement through evidence of the following where applicable;

(a) Membership of the Vintage Car Club prior to a period in the early 1950’s when the club briefly went into recess. (b) Membership of an independent club with the same or similar objects to the VCC prior to that club becoming an affiliated

branch of the VCC of New Zealand.

For these members only, the 50 years of membership is cumulative in nature, rather than continuous. However, taking into account the number of years that have passed since the VCC came out of recess, and the date upon which the last like-minded club adopted the VCC constitution to become an affiliated branch, recognition is now only given to members who have attained 50 years of unbroken membership, including membership under (b) above.

3. The honour of this award can only be bestowed after the Management Committee has researched the facts and approved the nomination of the member. The nomination, approval and presentation procedures must be adhered to so that the recipient receives the VIP treatment that the award deserves.

DESCRIPTION OF THE AWARD The award is to consist of a framed certificate, signed by the President, and a numbered 50 Year Lapel Badge. The National Office arranges these items and will be brought to the function by the President/representative.

NEW ZEALAND ADDRESS POST CODES

NZ Post changed all post codes in 2006. The use of post codes assists with reducing the error rate in delivery of post throughout the country. NZ Post also offers the public a discount when posting bulk mail, if you abide by their specifications. The Vintage Car Club of NZ (Inc.) has used the “bulk mail” system for many decades for the mailing of:

♦ Beaded Wheels

♦ Membership Cards

♦ Annual Subscription Invoices

♦ Annual General Meeting Mail out items

♦ Other mail requirements which exceed 1000 envelopes.

To obtain the “bulk mail” rate, the postal items must be in post code order and addresses in the manner that NZ Post instruct (ie all envelopes must be the same size, listed in postcode order, be typed and the address must be written out exactly as to the NZ Postcode site). For example, if NZ Post want ‘St Clair’ typed out as ‘Saint Clair’, then we must do it. Other examples are Street, Road, Avenue cannot be abbreviated, spaces must be the spots they request, and suburbs must be included as they advise.

THE VINTAGE CAR CLUB OF NEW ZEALAND (INC.) COMMUNICATIONS STRATEGY

2018 - 2021

Introduction The Vintage Car Club of New Zealand (VCC) is committed to demonstrating excellent performance and exceptional customer service in everything we do. This communications strategy represents a ‘statement of strategic direction’ for the “Club” and how this is to be achieved. The document includes a strategy on the general communications focus required by the VCC for successfully obtaining its communications objectives.

1. Communications objectives Our communications objectives are:

• To secure and strengthen the reputation of the club as a leader in the vintage car community

• To build and maintain a professional identity

• To promote the image of the Club as an effective, efficient and listening organisation focused on the members and their needs

• To ensure that communications are consistent and co-ordinated across all channels

• To ensure that our communications activities reflect the full diversity of the membership and help ensure equality of access to all our services.

The VCC will achieve this by talking to those who matter most, our members, sponsors and supporters. All VCC communications will:

• Be open and honest

• Contain up to date information

• Clear and concise and easy to understand

• Relevant to the intended audience

• Available to our audience in the most suitable format ie press release, email, memo for club meetings, written communication.

2. Key Audiences

The key audience for club communications is the members. This could be to individual members or branches. This is followed by sponsors, members of other, similar car clubs then the wider public. Reaching the audience The audience for the various types of communication is wide ranging but the following media will be used by the club, dependent upon the target audience for the communication:

• Face to face contact

• Written correspondence

• Telephone calls

• Website

• Email

• Traditional media – newspapers, radio, TV

• Social media – Facebook

• Printed and electronic material – leaflets, posters and publications (Beaded Wheels)

• Outdoor advertising – billboards etc • Interactive/participative events

The print and broadcast media We understand the role that print and broadcast media play in helping us spread the word about the Vintage Car Club of New Zealand. We will do this by adopting a proactive approach with the media concerning events that the Club may be promoting and will be reactive and open to any incoming media enquiries. These enquiries will be answered in an open, honest and in a timely manner. It is important that the club has an official spokesperson when dealing with media enquiries. All media enquiries of a sensitive nature should be directed to the President. 5. Social Media

The massive growth of social and digital media will continue and all indications are that it will or has already overtaken traditional media as the prime form of communications. We are embracing new technology and social media platforms as an integral part of our communications channels. We recognise the opportunities that social media can deliver in terms of reputation enhancement, engaging with the public using their medium of choice, greater two-way dialogue and the insights that social media can provide, and as an opportunity to reduce cost versus other communications channels. Similarly, we recognise the risks of social media and we are vigilant in monitoring our Facebook page to ensure it meets the high standards of communication required by the VCC. The VCC operates a Facebook account that promotes stories and events that are of interest to the members and wider public. This account has been deliberately set up so that the appointed editors have overall control of the content. 6. Website We recognise the value of the VCC website as a source of information for our members. The information contained on the website will be up to date and easily accessible for all members.

7. Internal Communications Internal communications play a key role in ensuring that staff and committee members understand the plans and priorities of the VCC and what is coming on the horizon. Employees need to understand how their actions contribute to the overall achievement of priorities and how their behaviour affects the way the organisation is perceived internally and externally.
