Are the Responsibilites of Membership absolute requirements?
The Responsibilities of Membership are guidelines, with the anticipation that they will be met. Abiding by the Code of Ethics is an absolute requirement. Enforcement of the Responsibilities of Membership and the Code of Ethics is at the group level, at the discretion of the Group Leaders. There may be instances where Group Leaders attest that a member is in good standing without meeting all of the Responsibilities of Membership.
