The motion submitted under s64(6) was in substance a complaint concerning the appellant’s conduct and therefore, under s99(1) LPA, the Malaysian Bar was required to refer it in the first place to the Disciplinary Board; publishing and tabling the motion at the AGM contravened s99(1), was ultra vires and caused actionable prejudice entitling the appellant to declaratory relief and assessment of damages against the Malaysian Bar.
