Approval

8.0.3.0. The council verifies the application before the board sits

Required May not apply Often forgotten

This may not apply to you. You have not answered "Which rank is this board of review for?" yet. Answer it and this step will either settle or drop off.

A board of review must not occur until after the local council has verified the application. Where a board is held under disputed circumstances, the council must verify everything not in dispute before the board is scheduled.

Warning. A hard gate and an easy one to trip. The board must not occur until the local council has verified the application. Booking the room, the chair and six people before the council has finished is how a board ends up held that should not have been.

Where this step comes from

  1. Guide to Advancement (2025), Section 8.0.3.0, item 4 · A board of review must not occur until after the local council has verified the application.
