This is what I meant. Get the list of people who did not do the annual
check-in and email their organisation. After they have not checked in, I
think it's fair enough to expose them to question whether they would still
like to be a member in a group where they do not even bother to vote.

You don't need CiviCRM for this. In fact you can not use CiviCRM for this
task, since it's the organisation you should be asking, not the
representative.

Yes, and that's the very easy part. Once you have the list of "dead"
organisations, we can stop their membership. Then the communication chair
will update the list on our website, unless that's automatically taken from
our membership database. (I don't think it should be)

By comparing the lists, you can very quickly tell, that they are not
identical. In fact, the very first item tells you that, had you bothered to
have a look.

It's not violating the users privacy, since the EC is able to access the
membership data anyway (or at least should be).

Please start working on this task immediately and this time, please keep me
posted, if there are any obstacles preventing you from doing this task.
