Lumpybumpy Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Hi everyone, it's been a while since I've written on here but I'm hoping someone might be able to help me. We are a committee run setting who are also struggling for members. I just wanted to ask if anyone knows the legal requirement for a committee... I have researched but am struggling to find anything conclusive. I know you need a Chair, Treasurer and Secretary but is there a regulation to adhere to regarding who they are? (eg. parents, community etc). We are just trying to unpick what we need to meet requirements rather than 'best practice'. Any advice welcome... Thanks x
Inge Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 This information should be included in your constitution... it varies depending on what is in there.. Ours was minimum of 5 members, maximum of 11.. 2/3 of them had to be parents rest could be local community or friends etc.. some allow staff members to be on committee... but not in the officers roles and not involved in anything to do with wages etc.. 2
Fredbear Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Hi it should definetly be outlined within your constitution or whatever you work too, including all legal requirements. Hope this helps. 1
Lumpybumpy Posted February 18, 2014 Author Posted February 18, 2014 Thank you Inge and Fredbear. I will go and check our constitution for further info, see what I can find out. Thanks again for your help
