26J: Chairperson of New Zealand Fish and Game Council

You could also call this:

"The leader of the New Zealand Fish and Game Council, chosen by the members, is in charge of running meetings."

The New Zealand Fish and Game Council members choose one of themselves to be the chairperson. You can think of the chairperson as the leader of the council. The chairperson is in charge of running the council meetings when they are there.

If the chairperson is not at a meeting, the other members choose someone else to be in charge of that meeting. This person is like a temporary leader, just for that one meeting. They make sure the meeting runs smoothly while the regular chairperson is away.

The council members make these decisions to ensure their meetings are always well-organised and productive. You can find more information about how the council was set up by looking at the Conservation Law Reform Act 1990. This act helps explain how the council works and what rules they follow.
