Does RONR 12th Ed indicate how a standing committee can be dissolved? Background: the standing committee I'm referring to is not specifically stated in our bylaws (only the EC and Audit committee); there is no real use of the committee any longer, so our ED & board president are wanting to dissolve it. Thanks in advance for your help! Koleen

The church I attend is governed by Robert's Rules of Order. It has come to my attention that the church committee responsible for investing money donated to the church in bequests has adopted "bylaws." It is my understanding of parliamentary procedure, that committees of an organization are not authorized to adopt "bylaws" but may adopt "guidelines or other operating policies and procedures" but just can't properly call them "bylaws." Please advise. -

I understand that committees are not required to keep minutes, but our Board requires that minutes of our committee meetings be submitted to them. I also understand that the rules of order differ for the committee as outlined in RONR, pp487-488. My question is, since minutes are not addressed in the modified rules, can we assume that the regular rules be applied to minutes?

If an assembly adopts RONR as its parliamentary authority (in the bylaws), are the boards and standing committees that are listed in the bylaws also compelled to use RONR as their parliamentary authority, or are they free to conduct business in the manner they choose?
