SKAL INTERNATIONAL VICTORIA - STATUTES AND BYLAWS
 

ARTICLE 37: SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION OF THE CLUB


The Executive Committee of Skal International may suspend, dissolve or terminate any
Club, which does not comply with, or function in accordance with the Official Publications,
guidelines or instructions of Skal International.


Failure to maintain the minimum number of fifteen (15) active and life members shall
result in the automatic suspension of the Club. However, if the Club can recruit sufficient
new active members to bring the membership to at least fifteen (15), reactivation may be
requested from Skal International.


Suspension of the Club, other than by the Executive Committee, can only be discussed
at an Annual General Meeting or an Extraordinary General Meeting called for this
purpose. At least two-thirds of the total members entitled to vote must be present for the
suspension discussion to be valid. For suspension to be approved a majority of two-thirds
of the voting members present must agree with the motion. In case of suspension or
termination of the Club, the Board should first honour all outstanding debts. All orders of
payments and other vouchers must bear the signature of the President, the Treasurer
and the two (2) Auditors. The remaining assets shall then be placed under the jurisdiction
of the National Committee and/or Skal International.


In case of reactivation of the Skal Club within the period of three (3) years since the
official date of suspension, the reactivated Club will also obtain the administration of the
assets.


Any Club which ceases to be a member of Skal International for the foregoing or any
other reason shall remove the title Skal from the name of its Club and may not thereafter
use the name, badges, insignias, emblems or any other identity of the Skal Movement
and shall also return its membership certificate to the General Secretariat for
cancellation.
