coleche Posted August 10, 2019 at 10:25 PM Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 at 10:25 PM Our organizations bylaws state that to be eligible to run for an office or elected committee you must have been on a national committee of the organization. The Nominating committee says Ad Hoc committees do not count, even though the AdHoc committee was appointed by the President . They contend they should been made aware of any appointed ad hoc committees prior to the Nomination process. Is there anything in Roberts Rules of Order that addresses this? As always thank you in advance for your replies! Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atul Kapur Posted August 10, 2019 at 10:29 PM Report Share Posted August 10, 2019 at 10:29 PM This is a question of interpretation of the bylaws. Can the nomination committee point to anything in the bylaws which backs up their argument that ad hoc committees "don't count"? Read the bylaws carefully and use Principles of Interpretation found on pages 588-591. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
