I haven't seen any contradictory advice on how to stand from the
committee members, so I'm rather puzzled by your confusion, but in any
case Tony has clarified how candidates should proceed.

Such a modification to the constitution would take time to prepare,
discuss and amend. I personally see little value in doing so, nor do I
wish to spend my time and/or money engaging the services of lawyers
discovering what, if anything HantsLUG is liable for. The liability of
your company, which carries out professional services in return for a
fee, may be quite different.

You appear to be asking other members to do this work as a
precondition of putting yourself forward for the committee. If they
have enough free time to do so, I would encourage them to instead
stand for one of the roles themselves. I feel it would be a better use
of their time ;-)
