Summary "The purpose of this guide is to provide an easy-to-use consultation manual on deliberative assembly procedures that is adapted to new requirements and realities. It consists one hundred or so rules that follow typical meeting structures: preparation, beginning, middle, and end. These rules are presented in the form of articles numbered consecutively and include supplementary comments, an index, and a summary table of the rules. This guide also includes two appendices: a method for filing documents related to deliberative meetings and a description of the functions and structure of meeting minutes."-- Provided by publisher
