Document background
The Meeting Minutes Agenda is a fundamental governance document used across New Zealand organizations to plan, structure, and record official meetings. It combines the forward-looking aspect of an agenda with the record-keeping function of minutes, ensuring compliance with the Companies Act 1993 and other relevant legislation. This document type is essential for maintaining accurate records of organizational decisions, demonstrating good governance, and providing legal protection. It's particularly important for board meetings, committee meetings, annual general meetings (AGMs), and other formal business gatherings where official records are required. The document typically includes meeting details, attendee information, discussion points, decisions made, and action items assigned, serving as both a guide during the meeting and an official record afterward.
