The Official RONR Q & A Forums

Member of Oganization becomes a Vendor


Guest Michael D.

Recommended Posts

We are a technology organzation and recently became aware of one of our members having the opportunity to take a job that makes him a vendor as a software architect and wanted to do a presentation to the group. This was allowed and he followed all protocol for payments etc that all other vendors also follow. The question arises in how we should address his access to our website and forums as this could be construed and is a valid argument that having access to other vendor information we post to our website.

We would like to incorporate language into our by-laws to meet this new need as we have not encountered this before. Are there any suggestions you can offer? Thanks so much for the feedback.

I'm afraid we try to stick with interpreting RONR. You might try locating similar organizations with similar issues. Or, if there are intellectual property concerns, consult an attorney.

As stated on its Introductory Page, “this Forum is provided to allow an open exchange of views relevant to specific questions of parliamentary procedure under Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised”.

This question is not one concerning what is or is not proper parliamentary procedure under the rules in RONR. As a consequence, we respectfully request that those interested in pursuing this question do so by private email, or other means outside of this forum.
