SCHEDULE 3RULES AS TO MEETINGS AND PROCEEDINGS OF BOARDS

2.—(1) The chair may call a meeting of the Board at any time.

(2) If the chair refuses to call a meeting after a requisition for that purpose, signed by at least one third of the members, has been presented to him or her, or if, without so refusing, the chair does not call a meeting within seven days after such requisition has been presented to him or her, such one third or more members may call a meeting to be held immediately.

(3) Before each meeting of a Board, a notice of the meeting, specifying the business proposed to be transacted at it, and signed by the chair or by an officer authorised by the chair to sign on his or her behalf must be delivered to every member and associate member, or sent by post to the usual place of residence of such member, so as to be available to such member, where reasonably practicable, at least ten clear days before the meeting.

(4) Want of service of the notice on any member does not affect the validity of a meeting.

(5) In the case of a meeting called by members in default of the chair, the notice must be signed by those members and no business may be transacted at the meeting other than that specified in the notice.
