Minimum standards - Failure to function

Jatinder Singh (South Asia)

Dear District Governors:

Greetings from RI South Asia office!

Congratulations and best wishes for a successful year ahead.

Please find the RI guidelines on clubs failure to function. As you are aware every member club of RI is expected to comply with the provisions of the constitutional documents; failing which action can be initiated against the clubs. Placed below are the relevant extracts from Rotary Code of Policies regarding Club 'Failure to Function' for your kind reference:

2.010.1.  Failure to Function

In accordance with the RI Bylaws, the RI Board is responsible for ensuring that all member clubs of the association are functioning, and defines a functioning club as 

1.  Having paid its per capita dues to Rotary International

2.  Meeting regularly consistent with RI constitutional documents

3.  Ensuring that its members subscribe to a Rotary World Magazine Press magazine

4.  Implementing service projects that address needs in the local community and/or in communities in other countries

5.  Receiving the visit of the governor, assistant governor, or an officer of Rotary International

6.  Maintaining appropriate general liability and directors and officers/employment practices liability insurance as provided in section 71.080. of this Code

7.  Acting in a manner consistent with the RI constitution, bylaws, and the Rotary Code of Policies

8.  Paying its RI membership and district dues without outside assistance

9.  Providing accurate membership lists on a timely basis to the general secretary

10.  Resolving club disputes in an amicable manner

11.  Maintaining cooperative relations with the district

12. Cooperating with RI by not initiating or maintaining litigation against Rotary International, The Rotary Foundation, the associate foundations and the international offices of the RI Secretariat

Each governor shall identify which clubs in the district are failing to function according to the above criteria and report the same on the “Memo of Club Visits” form.  This form shall be submitted to the general secretary.  The general secretary will review the “Memo of Club Visits” and shall annually report to the Board at its fourth meeting which clubs are not meeting the minimum standards for all clubs in accordance with this section.  Rotary senior leaders are also encouraged to report any observations that suggest that a club has failed to function.  (November 2009 Mtg., Bd. Dec. 99)

District Governors can also recommend action against clubs that fail to meet the minimum standards as prescribed above. Such recommendation should be supported by documentary evidences to support the recommendation. Any special efforts taken by the district to assist and support such clubs should also be shared.

Upon receipt of any such notification it is shared with the designated club/s to provide its response in support of their functioning status. All the documentary evidences (including the district's recommendation and the club's response) are evaluated for further administrative processing.

With regards,
