Case Study Analysis
Board Meeting Agendas and Minutes
The case study has detailed out the meetings minutes of all the meetings that have been held by the board members in the appendix section of the case study. It has also brief doubt the personal details of the inaugural and the current Board members. The meetings were held monthly on Wednesday evening from 7:00 p.m. at the club between February and November. The board meeting agendas were prepared by the CEO and were approved by the chairman while the minutes were taken by the company secretary of AFA. The agenda of the meetings were briefed out in the form of Chairman's report and the details of the meetings were provided in the form of CEO report. The apologies for each and every meeting was mentioned and the reason for the apology is also mentioned in the meetings minutes (Ruwanti et al., 2019). 
According to the Corporation Act of 2001 the companies are required to keep proper minutes of they are meetings including the aspects of resolution passed and the names of those who are present. In this case the minutes appear to meet this particular requirement. The meeting minutes that have been provided in the Appendix III of the case study meets the requirements of the corporation’s act of 2001. Based on the case study it appears that the company has compiled with the requirements. The board meeting agendas and minutes were distributed to all the board members before each meeting and it contains a comprehensive record of the decisions made and the actions taken by the board. For example, the minutes of the board meeting held on March 2022 set out the agenda that focuses on the chairs report and apologies, approval of the previous minutes and follow up of action items, CEO report and other businesses. 
The minutes have also recorded the names of those present at each meeting and have also demonstrated the board is taking steps to ensure that it is fulfilling its obligations under the Corporations Act of 2001 to maintain the accurate records of its meetings. Based on the information provided in the case study it appears that the board meetings agenda and minutes are sufficiently detail to ensure that the bodies able to fulfil its obligation under the Corporations Act 2001 to maintain accurate records of its meetings. It is also effective to point out that all details of the meetings are content in the form of chairs reports, discussion that were based on the previous meetings and the CEO report. For instance, we analyse one of the meetings minutes provided in the appendix that was held on March 2022 from the case study. The minutes have mentioned the fact that it was held on a date after the labour day even though the date of the meeting was not mentioned. 
The acting chair was Bob who Chere the meeting in the absence of the chairman gadi and Andrew Williams who are also away for the Labour Day long weekend. The agenda items of the meeting were summarized in the form of chairs reports and apologies. Bob noted the apologies for carry and Andrew who are still away.
