RGV Posted December 14, 2018 at 10:46 PM Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 at 10:46 PM When our General membership approves the minutes of the Executive Committee, does that approval mean that all actions of the Committee are accepted by the membership, or merely only the minutes that tell us what happened in their meeting?

Chris Harrison Posted December 14, 2018 at 10:57 PM Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 at 10:57 PM The minutes reflect what was done at the meeting. However, generally the minutes are approved by the body for which they were created (in this case the Executive Committee). Is there a reason why the General Membership is involved in their approval?

RGV Posted December 14, 2018 at 11:10 PM Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 at 11:10 PM Yes, in our organization, all actions of the Executive Committee must come before the General membership to be approved. There have been numerous instances when the general assembly has modified an item approved by the Executive Committee, or even rejected their approval.

Okay, but if your organization requires all actions of the Executive Committee to be approved by the general membership, a motion should be made to approve one or more of the actions of the Executive Committee. Approving the minutes simply indicates that the minutes are an accurate record of what happened. Even if the membership is approving the Executive Committee’s actions, the Executive Commitee should still be approving its own minutes.
