FAQ

Board meeting minutes are an objective record of what took place during a board meeting. The minutes are typically used for internal purposes like record-keeping and for posterity. Minutes can serve to inform future meetings and recall what was discussed, agreed upon or dismissed by a company's board members.

There is no general requirement that board minutes be public – though some countries have laws that they must be available to members. However, not-for-profit organisations earn trust by being open about how they handle the public trust that has been granted to them.

Legal Requirements for Board Meeting Minutes These include: Date, Time, and Venue: The exact date, time, and location of the meeting. Attendance: Names of the board members present, absent, and any guests or speakers. Agenda Items: A summary of each item discussed, along with any relevant presentations or reports.

What to Include in Meeting Minutes Date and time the meeting happened. Names of attendees, as well as absent participants. Acceptance of, or amendments made to, the previous meeting's minutes. Decisions made regarding each item on the agenda, such as: Activities undertaken or agreed upon. Next steps. Outcomes of elections.
