Is PIR an Independent Entity ?
PIR is a separate and independent entity. PIR has been incorporated separately in Pennsylvania as a not-for-profit corporation. By the laws of Pennsylvania, the Board of Directors of PIR has full authority over the operations of the company. Although ISOC has the legal right to appoint PIR’ s board, that does not diminish the legal rights and obligations of the PIR board. ISOC does have a liaison to the PIR board, but this is a non-voting post. There is no other overlap between the two boards.
