Issued January, 1965
In accordance with the provisions of Article 9 of the Constitution of the Association as accepted at Stockholm, any proposed amendment to the Constitution and Byelaws of the Association must be submitted 'sufficiently in advance of the next Business Meeting of the Association to allow time for its publication in the Bulletin of the Association in the first number of the Journal published in any Congress year.'
Under this clause it will not be possible to take definitive action on any proposed amendments to the Constitution and Byelaws at the next Congress, other than those which have been constitutionally submitted and which are published in this number of the Bulletin.
It is suggested, however, that in accordance with the Byelaws of the Association, Article 4—'any ten Members may move a resolution, provided they submit their proposal, duly signed, to the Honorary Secretary of the Association at least three months before the date of the Business Meeting.' In the event, therefore, that any ten Members wish to make suggestions or resolutions relevant to constitutional change, the Editor of the Bulletin will publish such proposals, which would then be dealt with as potentially binding resolutions in Amsterdam. Their final ratification as constitutional amendments, however, would be postponed until the 25th Congress in 1967.
It is proposed that Statute 5 (a) clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) be deleted and the following four clauses replace them, as Statute 5 (a) (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi). (Alterations to previous Statutes are printed in italics.)
