                     HCO POLICY LETTER OF 4 JANUARY 1966


Remimeo
All Staff Members







                                STAFF MEETING





    Staff Meetings should convene on the first Tuesday evening of any  month
at the
Organization headquarters.

    The Chairman of the Staff Meeting has always been and shall continue  to
be the
Executive Director or his deputy, the LRH Communicator.

    The business of the Staff Meeting shall be:

         To gather agreement and permit staff origination on matters
         relating to personnel and duties. To suggest promotional, maint-
         enance and organizational changes to the executives of the
         Organization.

    For any staff resolution to be a staff resolution, a majority  of  staff
members must
be present, else there is no quorum. For any staff resolution to  be  passed
or
conclusively killed, a majority vote of those present is necessary. In  case
of a tie, only
then does the Chairman vote.

    Robert's Rules of Order may be applied or not by  the  Chairman  to  the
Staff
Meeting as the need of formality may seem to be indicated  but  in  no  case
should the
business of Staff Meeting be unduly retarded by the  introduction  of  Rules
for that
purpose.

    Staff Meeting  resolutions  should  be  made  into  minutes.  These  are
presented to the
Advisory Council for information and the  Executive  Director  for  approval
before they
become law.

    Special Staff Meetings not on a regular meeting date may be called,  (1)
by the
Executive Director or his deputy the LRH Communicator, or  (2)  by  a  Staff
Member on
three days' notice by posting a notice on the Comm  Center  Bulletin  Board,
stating the
time (but not during business hours) and the exact business  to  be  covered
by the
meeting and the meeting shall be convened only if a majority of  staff  then
sign or
initial such notice. Neither meeting shall have legal force  if  a  majority
of staff members
are not present and  if  the  Executive  Director  or  his  deputy  the  LRH
Communicator is
not in the chair. Resolutions of such meetings must  proceed  in  the  usual
channels.

    The Secretarial to the Executive Director shall take down and  type  all
minutes of
Staff Meeting.
