executive session

After reading page 460 in Roberts. I am confused as to the secretary's minutes in relations to executive session. My question is if an executive committee goes into executive session what minutes does the secretary recorded of the proceedings? does the secretary included that the executive committee did go to executive session in the minutes or the reason for the executive session?

As explained in this thread, minutes are taken of an executive session just like they are of any other session.  However, they should be kept separate from other minutes and be available only to those members who attended or were entitled to attend the executive session.  They should be approved only in another executive session.

The minutes of the meeting which went into executive session should note that fact, such as by saying:  "On motion of Mrs. Williams, the meeting went into executive session at 7:20 pm".   The purpose of the executive session may, but need not be, stated by saying something like "to discuss the search for a new executive director".   If the regular meeting resumes after the executive session, the minutes of the regular session should reflect that.  If the meeting instead adjourns when the business of the executive session is completed, the minutes would state simply that "The meeting adjourned at 7:45 PM."
