Article 3.21 Location of meetings
This rule applies to a request made under section 246A(9) to specify a place for the meeting.
The request must be accompanied by—
a list of the members making or concurring with the request and their voting rights; and
from each person concurring, confirmation of that person’s concurrence.
The request must be delivered to the education administrator within seven business days of the date on which the education administrator delivered the notice of the meeting in question.
Where the education administrator considers that the request has been properly made in accordance with the Act and this rule, the education administrator must—
deliver notice to all those previously given notice of the meeting—
that it is to be held at a specified place, and
as to whether the date and time are to remain the same or not;
set a venue (including specification of a place) for the meeting, the date of which must not be later than 28 days after the original date for the meeting; and
deliver at least 14 days’ notice of that venue to all those previously given notice of the meeting;
and the notices required by sub-paragraphs (a) and (c) may be delivered at the same or different times.
Where the education administrator has specified a place for the meeting in response to a request to which this rule applies, the education administrator, or a person appointed by the education administrator to act as chair of the meeting, must attend the meeting by being present in person at that place.
