Further Guidance regarding proxies.
Please be advised that a Delegate who has given his proxy to another Delegate can still vote a proxy if he has been given one.
FIDE recommends that the following wording be used for the assignment of proxies in accordance with paragraph (d) of the guidance posted on 10 June 2014:
Assignment
"I, the [President/Delegate] of the federation of _______________________ [insert country], hereby assign a proxy to the Delegate of the federation of _______________________ [insert country] who is on the list published by FIDE on 14 July 2014 (or to his/her nominee, in case of re-assignment) to vote or take any action as may be necessary on our federation's behalf at the FIDE General Assembly to be held in Tromso, Norway in August 2014".
Please note that:
A member federation can assign a proxy only in writing and only to a delegate of another federation who is on the list published by FIDE on 14th July. Once assigned, a proxy cannot be revoked. For a proxy to be valid, it must be dated and either signed or sent by the President or delegate of the federation. The proxy can be either an original or a copy, and can be delivered by any means. No other formal elements are necessary for the validity of the proxy. Where two proxies are received and there is a conflict, the order of priority shall be as follows:
I. Proxies received from the delegate II. Proxies received from the President
