Members of the committee should:

• always work within the spirit and rules of the constitution.

• observe ‘collective responsibility’ for committee decisions.

• not bring the Association into disrepute

• not speak or write on behalf of GEGRA without the prior agreements of

the GEGRA chair. Such Correspondence should be available to all

committee members, upon request.

• consider the impact of your actions on the safety and well-being of the

residence.

Conflict of interest

Members of the committee should disclose any interest, personal or on

behalf of any group they represent, that may affect their approach to the

matter and the discussion. Where there is conflict of interest, that member

should abstain from voting on any relevant matter of conflict if it arises.

Confidentiality

Members should respect all individual, tenants and residents’

confidentiality. Information about specific individual, tenants and residents

not present should not be discussed at public meetings.

The Environment

Protecting the environment is an important concern of GEGRA. Members

should consider the long term environmental impact of their actions and

manner and follow the guidance of the GEGRA Chair.

• GEGRA Members must be courteous and respectful to each other

Breach of meeting etiquette

If a GEGRA member or Member of the committee does not abide by the

above meeting etiquette, they will be given a verbal warning by the GEGRA

Chair. If they continue with their behaviour, they may be asked to leave the

meeting.

If the person continues to ignore these rules and refuses to leave the

meeting after being warned, then the Chair has the power to close the meeting.
