However, the minutes of an Executive Session (which is RONR's term for an In Camera Session) should also be approved in Executive Session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmtcastle Posted January 11, 2011 at 08:58 PM Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 at 08:58 PM the minutes of an Executive Session (which is RONR's term for an In Camera Session) should also be approved in Executive Session.I wouldn't be so quick to say the two terms are equivalent.And don't hold your breath waiting for the 11th Edition to do away with the archaic term, "executive session", which is neither executive nor a session. The authorship team has to play with the cards they've been dealt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Martin Posted January 11, 2011 at 10:34 PM Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 at 10:34 PM I wouldn't be so quick to say the two terms are equivalent.They seem similar enough in this case, although I'm all for encouraging people to avoid using legal terms outside of legal contexts.

The same as always.The Book never draws a distinction between:(a.) regular (or "open") session(b.) executive (or "closed") session(c.) in camera session(d.) secret session... regarding the recording of the motion.See The Book for minutes approval of an executive session, for its special handling.Should it be brought forward into the next meeting and recorded in those minutes?The Book says, "No."See above.As always, if you already have a rule in place to specify handling in way different from RONR (10th ed.) default handling, then that rule will apply as RONR yields.
