Examples of internal management issues: Election procedures of office bearers, amendments to constitutions or passing of audited statements of accounts at general meetings.

Registered societies are self-governing entities, bounded by their Constitutions. The Constitution is a private contractual agreement governing the rights and liabilities of its members.

While ROS strives to assist members of the public on issues relating to the regulation of societies, we do not interfere in the internal management of societies by the Management Committee or take action in matters including but not limited to the following:

1. Validity of General Meetings / the manner in which General Meetings are conducted.

2. Election procedures of Committee Members / Who are the rightful Committee Members.

3. Interpretation of Society's Constitution / amendments to Constitution.

4. How the resolutions were passed at General Meetings / number of votes which can be counted at General Meetings.

5. Disagreements on the strategic direction of the Society.

Societies are advised to take action within their own rules / Constitution to remedy the problem, seek arbitration or legal advice, if necessary.
