Who can call a special meeting of the Board?

The authority to call a special meeting of the Board is typically vested in The Chairperson. This power allows the head of the Board to convene urgent sessions to address critical or time-sensitive matters that cannot wait for the scheduled regular meetings, ensuring responsive governance.

• Any Member calling a special meeting would lead to disorganization and potential abuse, as it lacks centralized control.
• The Secretary usually manages the logistics and documentation of meetings but does not typically possess the independent authority to call them.
• The Enforcement Officer is an operational role focused on implementing regulations, not a governance role empowered to convene the Board. The Chairperson's role includes leadership and ensuring the Board's timely functioning.
