Checks and Balances
The term “checks and balances” refers to the mutual control (checks) of an association’s bodies in order to achieve a balance (balances), which is helpful for the success of the association. The balance of power includes: 1. The separation of powers, i.e. employees cannot simultaneously be members of the committee. 2. The balanced distribution of power within the committee and throughout the association.
