The National League will carry on for the remainder of the season but the North and South Divisions have been declared null and void.
More than two weeks after the four resolutions to decide how to end the season were sent by the league to member clubs, the threshold for making a decision was finally reached - even though not all the votes have been received.
The National League campaign will proceed, despite seven out of 23 clubs voting to end the season.
But, while the majority of National League South clubs voted to continue its season (12-9), fewer counterparts in National League North felt the same (7-15) and the decision to scrap the campaign with immediate effect was taken.
The initial resolution, for each step of the National League to decide its own fate by a simple majority was carried, with all 23 clubs in the senior league voting in favour.
The voting method for that resolution meant that the North and South Leagues only had four votes each, so the 75% threshold was comfortably reached.
