Members of Auxiliary Boards should be freed from
administrative responsibilities including serving on Committees and as delegates
to conventions. In the event of any member of a National Assembly accepting
appointment to a Board, the National Assembly should accept this as valid
reason for that member's resignation from the Assembly; should a Board member
be elected to a National Assembly, he must choose on which body he will serve.
