Procedure: Managing committee notifications

When to perform

This action is performed by the servicing officer on behalf of chair person to manage whether notifications are sent to the committee to remind them of upcoming meetings, to notify them of updates to minutes of previous meetings and to request agenda items.

Notifications should only be set when servicing officers are uploading documents for the previous meeting, the current meeting and meetings in the future. When uploading any other meeting documents from the past notifications should not be sent.
