To all organizations in BC incorporated as a society under the BC
Society Act:

 

The BC Ministry of Finance has initiated a review of the BC Society Act.

 

The deadline for comments for this first phase of the review is April 1,
2010.

 

Here's the BC Ministry of Finance link:

The link contains information on the review and how to submit your
comments to the Ministry. (Please do not send your comments to me)

 

The stated purpose of the review from the Ministry's webpage is to
identify and address any legislative obstacles that may prevent
societies from functioning fully and efficiently, and ensure that the
public interest is being protected. The Ministry is seeking input on any
problems, gaps, inconsistencies or ambiguities in the Society Act and
any reforms societies would like considered. 

 

The Ministry is encouraging people to forward this information to their
colleagues.
