    CGLG notes that less than 30 days notice is given for these special meetings because the sole substantive focus will be to vote on budget resolutions for both organizations for FY 2012 (July 1, 2011-June 30, 2012) that were previously posted to both organizations' websites on May 10, 2011. Pursuant to the By-Laws of the Compact Council, the budget serves as authorization for the Executive Director to make expenditures on behalf of the Compact Council. The CGLG serves as Secretariat to the Regional Body and the Compact Council.
