Guest RAS Posted January 29, 2020 at 04:59 PM Report Share Posted January 29, 2020 at 04:59 PM Question - does the Treasurer's report per Robert Rules - need to be read at a business meeting? Or can a paper be handed out to the members with this info, there are 40 plus who attend? Then should it be in the minutes as well? Currently we read the report after the President asks for it and it is then included in the minutes. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you There is no requirement that it be read and it doesn't need to be included in the minutes. RONR simply notes "At each meeting of a society, the chair may ask for a "Treasurer's report," which may consist simply of a verbal statement of the cash balance on hand—or of this balance less outstanding obligations. Such a report requires no action by the assembly. " RONR (11th ed.), p. 477 (But I've never encountered a group that doesn't have some portions of it read. Maybe I need to get out more) Edited January 29, 2020 at 08:21 PM by George Mervosh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
