Q: What are common mistakes made by the Secretary in writing the minutes of what happened?
:A:
:A: Failure to record the when (including beginning and end times), where, what, and who (e.g., identities of key people) of the meeting, failure to record all motions, all votes, and important points of order, failure to sign the minutes when completed, and improper inclusion of comments, withdrawn motions, and other improper detail like the identities of who seconded motions, none of which are appropriate for the formal minutes. Also, minutes must be formally adopted at the next meeting in order to be effective.
