There is usually a clause saying how a meeting can be called. I think ours
says by the President etc. etc.

Then there is a statement about notice of  meetings and the agenda for the
meeting.


(as opposed to 3 or 4 people who decide to meet together -

such a group may arrange to call a meeting with sufficient support for their
