Who decides admission?
The National Board of Directors decides unless it has formally delegated this power to the Admission and Membership Committee by resolution. With delegation, the Committee decides by a majority of members present; ties are referred to the Board. The General Secretariat administers the process and register.
The Committee has four members: the National Vice President (chair), General Secretary (technical secretary), Institutional Development Director, and Security and Protection Director. If the last office is vacant or its holder is not a director, the Board appoints a serving director instead. A majority must be directors. Three eligible, conflict-free members form the quorum. A chapter representative may attend with voice but no vote.
How is the right to a defense protected?
Through notice of the facts, an opportunity to provide explanations and evidence, a reasoned decision and review by the competent body. No sanctions arise from rumors, social media or informal votes.
Who approves chapters?
The National Board of Directors approves creation and recognition. Institutional Development verifies requirements and supports the process; general administration belongs to the Vice Presidency.
What resource controls apply?
Budgeting, expenditure authorization, supporting documents, recording and reconciliation; separation of decision-making, execution and review. Conflicts are declared and abstention is documented.
