The Katoomba Men's Shed Constitution is in the form of a series of rules, based largely on the Model Rules from the Australian Men's Shed Association, the current rules were adopted in July 2017 and came into force in September 2017.
The first part of the constutution defines the name and objectives and defines not-for-profit status of the organisation.
- Part two sets out the basis for membership, the process for joining and fees that apply.
- Part three defines the composition, role and operation of the Management Committee.
- Part four sets out the procedures for general meetings of the Shed.
- Part five contains a number of miscelaneous rules that cover aspects such as the financial and insurance arrangements, custody of books and the source and management of funds.
These rules may be supplemented by more specific policies and procedures, which provide more detail where necessary.
