Corporate Structure Comments Invited

The House of Delegates’ Constitution and Bylaws Committee is continuing its consideration of the Global Corporate Structure concept.

The concept was constructed following the 2004 AAPG Strategic Plan and deals with the legal, governance and structure issues, which would allow AAPG to operate worldwide while protecting AAPG assets.

The committee received the concept following a “sense of the House” offered at the meeting in Denver.

The timeline calls for the C&BL committee to submit the proposal for a vote of the House at the 2010 AAPG Convention in New Orleans. Assuming HoD approval, the measure would go to the AAPG membership for ratification.

If the timeline is met, implementation would be in 2011.

An area on the AAPG Web site has been activated for members to discuss and comment on the AAPG Global Corporate Structure proposal.
