Committee

The Act specifies that:

• there be at least 3 officers on a society's committee (although most society committees are larger than this), and
• every committee member is an officer, and
• certain people are not permitted to serve as officers (see the 'Officers' Qualifications' rule which specifies who is disqualified from being appointed or holding office).

Functions of the committee

This rule reinforces the main function of your committee.

The Act requires the operation and affairs of a society to be managed by, or under the direction or supervision of its committee.

As each committee member is also an officer of the society, the committee must act in good faith and in the best interest of the society when performing the committee's functions.
