The work of the Board of Directors follows an annual agenda established in the Board's Procedural Rules. In preparation for each board meeting, the Board receives reports and documentation compiled according to established procedures.
The purpose of this is to ensure that the Board has the relevant information and documentation on which to base decisions. The Board’s work is mainly performed within the framework of formal board meetings and through meetings in the committees of the Board.
