Guest Jim Brodginski Posted March 6, 2012 at 05:28 AM Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 at 05:28 AM Is it an acceptable practice to hold by-law meetings in closed door sessions? If no by-law committee is in place and the organization has outlined membership requirements, can they be excluded from these meetings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David A Foulkes Posted March 6, 2012 at 01:16 PM Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 at 01:16 PM Is it an acceptable practice to hold by-law meetings in closed door sessions?Is this a meeting of the bylaw committee? Or a meeting of the membership at which bylaws are being discussed/amended? I don't know of any rule that would prevent it, but I'm not sure what the value of doing so would be. But that's not for me to decide anyway.If no by-law committee is in place and the organization has outlined membership requirements, can they be excluded from these meetings?If there is no bylaw committee, then what kind of meetings are these and who is meeting at these meetings? What does membership requirements have to do with this?Whatever these meetings you speak of are (board, membership, committee), the members of that group have a right to attend and cannot be excluded unless some rule says otherwise (which would be a surprise).Perhaps you could come back and clarify some of this for us.------------JD - re #4, ha ha ha.
