Proposed Revision of Membership Provisions in the Bylaws
The Annual Meeting received a proposal (ref IAF-GM-02-009) to revise the Bylaws and approved the creation of a new category of Members called “Partner Members”, limiting the totality of votes of Association Members and Partner Members to no more than 4/7th of the total votes of Accreditation Body members and allowing the Board to grant Observer Status, reviewed annually, to those entities with which it wishes to develop closer relationships but which are not eligible for either membership or special recognition.
