FAQ

They are legally required to include these details: Date, time, and location of the meeting. Record of notice of board meeting provision and acknowledgment. Names of attendees and absentees, including guests. Approval of previous meeting minutes.

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.

Approve the minutes: Once corrections are complete, the chair asks for a motion to approve the minutes. One member makes the motion, a second member approves it, and the chair calls for a vote. The approval of meeting minutes goes through with a majority vote.

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.

Special board meetings may be called by the chair of the board, the president, any vice president, the secretary, or any two directors.

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.

Are board meeting minutes confidential? Yes. The board should assume the minutes are confidential and, in most cases, they will remain so. They should also realise that, sooner or later, the minutes may be available as part of a legal case.

Usually, the “call to meeting” must be issued by a specific officer (often the president) and sometimes requires the approval of the board. Some organizations allow a set number of members to submit a written request that requires the president to call a special meeting.

Notice must be given to each director and the notice must indicate the proposed time, date and place of the meeting. Notice does not need to be in writing but it is best practice to have a form of written notice sent out.

A meeting notice should include the following key details: Name and contact information of the meeting chair. Name and role of the sender of the meeting notice. Names and roles of all the invitees. Type of meeting — regular, annual, or special. Date, time and location of the meeting (the notice should also be dated)
