These groups have now reached out to legislative subcommittees and the Charities Bureau to achieve a consensus over the possible revisions which they believe to be in the public interest. The interaction of these groups has been constructive and our Committee believes that they will resolve many of the most problematic issues created by the Act.

The Committee also believes that beyond these major changes there needs to be an ongoing modernization of the Not-for-Profit Corporation Law to deal with issues not addressed by the Act. The Committee will have a panel discussion at the winter meeting of the Business Section of the New York State Bar Association to review these proposals for change and new issues that need to be addressed.

The Act provided long-overdue reforms, there has been difficulty in complying with certain of its provisions and unintended consequences of other provisions. These efforts have recently culminated in suggestions for amendments to the Not-for- Profit Corporation Law that have been presented to the appropriate legislative committee chairpersons.

After consultations with NYSBA executive officers an to meet that perceived need, our Executive Committee has established a new standing committee to focus on the legal needs and interests of not-for profit corporations. The inaugural Chair of the committee is Frederick Attea, Esq. If you work for or provide services to not-for-profit corporations, r if you are otherwise interested in the legal affairs of such corporations, we invite you to join the committee.
