Understand who can access minutes: In many cases, meeting minutes are considered public records, which means others can view them. Make sure you understand who can view the meeting notes, and keep that audience in mind when deciding what information to include.
Who Should Take Minutes at a Board Meeting? Any board member can take board meeting minutes, although it is typically the responsibility of the board secretary.
Are board meeting minutes confidential? Yes. The board should assume the minutes are confidential and, in most cases, they will remain so.
Answer: A board member has the right to view all the board meeting minutes. This is necessary because a board member is a fiduciary for the organization, in a position of trust. One has the obligation to familiarize oneself with the history and actions of the organization, in order to fulfill that trust.
Minutes, papers, agendas should be public and meetings should have a portion of the session for confidential matters e.g. financial, HR, crisis management etc., to be discussed in private, either before or after the open session. Confidential matters and papers are still confidential.
The meeting-minute approval process begins when a chairperson makes the motion. To approve minutes, unanimous consent is required. The minutes of the previous meeting should be approved during the current meeting. If this isn't possible, a special committee or executive board may be required to approve the minutes.
