These standing rules are guidelines developed to provide advice on how to implement policies (Chapter or National) and/or execute common, complex objectives where there are many activities required that aren’t necessarily straightforward. They are intended to help new members understand how we do things, and older members take on complex tasks without having to reinvent the wheel. These are not intended to be immutable and can be molded to fit differing circumstances, if necessary. So whether you are a new member or an old hand, these guidelines should be used to help you work in a smarter fashion, with less effort, and in a way that adheres to our policies.
