s 150 Appointment of directors to be voted on individually
150.—(1) At a general meeting of a public company, a motion for the appointment of 2 or more persons as directors by a single resolution must not be made unless a resolution that it may be so made has first been agreed to by the meeting without any vote being given against it. (2) A resolution passed pursuant to a motion made in contravention of this section is void, whether or not its being so moved was objected to at the time. (3) Where a resolution pursuant to a motion made in contravention of this section is passed, no provision for the automatic re‑appointment of retiring directors in default of another appointment is to apply. (4) For the purposes of this section, a motion for approving a person’s appointment or for nominating a person for appointment is to be treated as a motion for the person’s appointment. (5) Nothing in this section —(a) applies to a resolution altering the company’s constitution; (b) prevents the election of 2 or more directors by ballot or poll.[36/2014]
