Periodicity of SLBC Meetings
Each State Level Bankers' Committee may meet as often as necessary keeping in view the business on hand. It is, however, expected that the frequency of such meetings will in no case be less than once every quarter. The Steering sub-committee' is expected to meet more often than the main committee. It would, however, be useful if the State Level Bankers' Committee do meet and discuss issues before every meeting of the State Level Coordination Committees, so as to facilitate the banks to take a constructive and coordinated view of the problems proposed to be discussed by the State Level Bankers' Committee.
Attendance at the Meetings
It is expected that the nominated representatives of the Bank will attend all the meetings of the main committee, the Steering Sub-committee or any study group. If for any unavoidable reason a nominated representative of bank cannot be present at any particular meeting, he should nominate his next-in command to attend the meeting on his behalf, after duly briefing him about the Bank's views on the various items of the agenda for the meeting. The objective should be that issues for considerations do not get postponed for want of attendance of the representatives of the banks.
Proceedings and Follow-up Actions
The proceedings of the meetings of the committee or its sub-committees may be drawn up by the Convenor Bank and circulated to all the members within a fortnight of the date of the meetings. Each bank is expected to initiate follow-up action on the consensus arrived at the meetings of the committee. Every endeavor should be made to implement all the recommendations of committee. In any case, the decision not to implement any of the recommendations of the committee be taken only after reference to examination of the question at the head office of the Bank.
The Convenor Bank may present to the committee an assessment report on the following-up action taken by the bank on decisions of the committee. Cases of non-acceptance of non-compliance with the recommendations of the committee may be specifically listed in such reports.
