What are by-laws, and where can you find them? 2. What is the difference between by-laws and house rules? 3. Why are there so many variances between different by-laws for similar schemes? 4. How can you identify invalid by-laws? 5. What is the best way to prepare and draft by-laws? 6. How are by-laws enforced? Todd will step us through the by-law enforcement process. The session also concluded with a Q&A segment.
