Subject: [Branchseneschals] [Announcements] Comments Requested - Proposed
Addition to Corpora
To: announcements at sca.org

Proof of membership has long been a requirement for sitting royalty, and a
lapse in membership during a reign automatically resulted in termination.
In order to bring officer requirements into line, the addition to Corpora of
items I.D.2.a and I.D.2.b has been proposed:


D.   Membership Requirements
1.      General
Participants should expect to show proof of membership in order to qualify
for member privileges. The level of proof required should be commensurate
with the long-term risk to the Society posed by an erroneous claim to
membership.
2.      Officers
Officers at all levels of the Society must be Society members as defined in
the Glossary and must have immediate access to the corporate newsletter for
their area received at their residence. (Alternate access arrangements may
be made for members of affiliated organizations or on a case-by-case basis
for people with post office boxes and for International Members.) This
standard also applies to deputies designated as successors to officers
subject to this provision, or assigned independent administrative duties.
Deputies who only assist with specific tasks are exempt from the newsletter
access requirement.
a. The warrants and/or appointments of officers found to be without a valid
membership shall be considered terminated as of the date of the lapse.
b. Warrants terminated due to a lapse in membership may or may not be
reinstated upon demonstration of a valid membership at the pleasure of the
warranting authority and within the confines of the governing documents and
kingdom law.


The Board requests comments from the membership regarding this proposed
revision no later than May 1, 2007. Please send them to: Corpora Revision
SCA Inc. Box 360789 Milpitas CA, 95036, or e-mail to: comments at sca.org.
