Governance resources
To support our organisations run effectively and efficiently in line with best practice and relevant company, trade union and charity law we have a number of policies and articles of association guiding our activities.
Articles of Association
Both BAOT and RCOT have separate Articles of Association that set out our constitution and dictate how we are governed and operate. They cover various aspects, including:
- our charitable purpose
- how trustees are appointed, their powers, and their responsibilities
- procedures for holding board meetings, delegation and managing conflicts of interests
