358: Approval of revised rule
or “The group in charge can agree to new rules or change them if needed, but they must talk to the boss first.”

You could also call this:

“The rules for changing or cancelling a rule are the same as the rules for making a new rule.”

When the Board wants to change or cancel a rule, they need to follow the same steps as when they make a new rule. These steps are explained in sections 355 to 358. So, if you want to change or cancel a rule, you have to do all the same things you would do to create a new rule. This makes sure that changes to rules are done carefully and properly, just like when new rules are made.
