A sports club I'm a member of is about to vote on a rule change proposed by the management committee to the effect that if it were to sell assets in the future, the proceeds would have to go to another institution/s with the same objectives as the club or to charity.
Has there been a law change to prevent clubs from dividing up such proceeds among the members?
If there has, would it affect the registration of a club if it didn't reflect such a change in its rules?
