TLC’s Constitution and Bylaws were established by our membership when TLC was founded in 1997. They provide the fundamental set of principles and rules by which TLC is governed. The Constitution and Bylaws may only be amended by the membership at an Annual General Meeting or other General Meeting called specifically to address the proposed amendments. The Bylaws were slightly amended at the AGM in 2000, 2008, 2010, 2015 and 2016, and the version provided here is a consolidation which incorporates those amendments.
