REGULATIONS. 



Admission to Membership of the General Committee. 



1. Claims for admission to permauent membership of the General 

 Committee must be lodged with the Secretary of the Association at least 

 one month before the Annual Meeting, either by claimants themselves or 

 by Eecorders on behalf of sectional Organising Committees desiring to 

 make recommendations for admission. 



2. Claims for admission as a Temporary Member of the General Com- 

 mittee may be sent to the Secretary at any time before or during the 

 Annual Meeting. 



Committee of Recommendations. 



3. All proposals sanctioned by a Sectional Committee shall be forwarded 

 by the Recorder to the Secretary of the Association, who shall give 

 previous notice of the hours at or before which such proposals must be 

 received by him, for presentation to the Committee of Recommendations. 



4. The Committee of Recommendations shall hold at least one meeting, 

 and shall submit a report to the General Committee at the final meeting 

 thereof, during the Annual Meeting of the Association. 



Research Committees. 



5. Research Committees shall be composed of Members of the Associa- 

 tion, provided that it shall be competent for the General Committee to 

 appoint, or for a Research Committee to co-opt, as an assessor or con- 

 sultative member, any person, not being a Member of the Association, 

 whose assistance may be regarded as of special importance to the research 

 undertaken. 



6. The Chairman of a Research Committee must, before the Annual 

 Meeting next following the appointment of the Research Committee, 

 forward to the General Treasurer a statement of the sums that have been 

 received and expended, together with vouchers. The Chairman must then 

 return the balance of the grant, if any, which remains unexpended ; 

 provided that a Research Committee may, in the first year of its appoint- 

 ment only, apply for leave to retain an unexpended balance when or 

 before its Report is presented, due reason being given for such application. 



When application is made for a Committee to be reappointed, and to 

 retain the balance of a former grant, and also to receive a further grant, 

 the amount of such further grant is to be estimated as being sufficient, 

 together with the balance proposed to be retained, to make up the amount 

 desired.
