The Board of Directors meets at least three times a year when convened by its Chairman.
The meeting is convened by right within thirty days of a request made by the Minister for Health, by the Chief Executive or by at least one third of the members of the Board of Directors.
Unless it is an emergency, the members shall receive the agenda and the documents required to examine the subjects on the agenda at least eight days before the date of the meeting.
In cases of justified urgency, the deliberations of the Board of Directors may be adopted by videoconference in accordance with the procedures defined by the Board of Directors’ internal regulations.
If it is not possible to use videoconferencing, the members of the Board of Directors may, under the same conditions and in accordance with the same procedures, be consulted in writing. Observations on the draft decision by one of the members are immediately communicated to the other members. Any member may object to this method of consultation: in this case, the procedure is terminated and the Board of Directors is convened to deliberate.
