therefore subject on each occasion to the prior approval of National Office.

should be conveyed promptly to the Chief Executive for approval.

conduct of National Rover Moots.
In addition to Rovers and Associate Rovers, the following groups may be invited
to participate at the discretion of the organising committee and the approval of
Chief Executive.
