provisional squadrons and (on request) auxiliaries. That administration
extends to
writing the national bylaws and all amendments to them and the approval
of all bylaws of all subordinate levels. It is further responsible for
interpreting the national bylaws and passing on credentials of voters
at Governing Board meetings.
In addition it is charged with the responsibilty of chartering new
squadrons during periods between governing Boards. Its chairman
or his appointee is the parliamentarian at all
national meetings and his counterparts serve the same role at
district and squadron levels.
The committee name is abbreviated ComRules.
