The Past President and the President Elect assist the President in performance of the allocated duties. There is at least one representative of the sisters, brothers and priests on the Executive Committee. The Executive Committee meets six times per annum, at roughly two monthly intervals, for a day at the Rosebery office of CLRI(NSW)
At meetings, the Executive Committee receives a report from each of the committees and other working parties of CLRI(NSW), as well as a report from the Finance Manager and the Executive Director. Issues affecting the membership are discussed and decisions made about future action and projects.
Officers
The CLRI(NSW) presidents, - past, current and elect, work in collaboration and consultation with each other, the other Executive Committee members and the Executive Director.
