[Lnc-business] RONR question on ExComm

[Jeff Lyons]

That's a good catch and a damn interesting question.




Also, Bylaws 7.1.10 states- "A majority of the membership of the National Committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at all meetings."




Could a possible solution be that the ExecComm should either be populated with a quorum of the LNC or achieve a quorum by invitation of other LNC members prior to voting on substantial business?  If the ExecComm is currently 7 members, could it be as easy as drafting two more members from the rest of the body?  Until a proper Bylaws Amendment can be implemented?

In RONR 485:27-28, it is stated that there can only be an executive
committee if the Bylaws so provide.  Our Bylaws do not make explicit
mention of authority for an Executive Committee. I see from the footnote in
the Policy Manual speaking of the ExComm that the claimed authority is
Article 7.1 of the Bylaws which is a general authority to delegate the
powers of the LNC.  Is that sufficient?  Usually, when RONR says something
needs to be in the Bylaws, it means specifically and not in a catch-all.
