Circulation of election addresses, resolutions and statements

1
If the rules of the society so provide, any dispute in respect of a refusal by a building society to send to its members—
a
copies of an election address, in accordance with section 61(7), or
b
any document required to be sent under paragraph 31(1) of Schedule 2 to this Act,
shall, unless the refusal is on one of the grounds specified in sub-paragraph (2) below, be referred to arbitration.
2
Those grounds are—
a
that publicity for the document in question would be likely to diminish substantially the confidence in the society of investing members of the public, or
b
that the rights conferred by section 61(7) or paragraph 31(1) are being abused to seek needless publicity for defamatory matter.
