Translation - French 5.6 Toute décision prise par un seul Membre sous réserve de ce qui est stipulé dans l’Article 5.5 ci-dessus, est enregistrée par écrit et remise par ce membre à la Société afin qu’elle soit consignée dans le registre de la Société prévu à cet effet.
5.7 En vertu de la Section 303 de la Loi, les résolutions visant à relever un Administrateur de ses fonctions avant le terme de son mandat ne peuvent être adoptées que lors des Assemblées Générales ; ces mêmes résolutions et conditions sont régies par la Section 391 de la Loi pour le renvoi d’un Commissaire aux comptes.
5.8 Le mandataire d’un Membre est en droit de prendre la parole lors de l’assemblée et de voter à main levée. Dans le cas où le mandataire représente plusieurs Membres, il doit voter à main levée autant de fois que le nombre de personnes qu’il représente. (...)

Aux fins de cet article, dans le cas où deux ou plusieurs Membres décèderaient dans des circonstances ne permettant pas d’établir lequel a survécu à l’autre ou aux autres, le décès des Membres s’envisage par ordre de séniorité et par conséquent, les plus jeunes sont réputés avoir survécu aux plus vieux.

Source text - English Accountability is the life blood of democratic governance. Parliaments have the primary role of both “giving account’ of their actions to the electorate and providing an oversight of public institutions to make them accountable to the citizenry.
Translation - French Faire preuve de responsabilité constitue l’élément essentiel d'un gouvernement démocratique. Les parlements ont le rôle fondamental de « rendre des comptes » à leur électorat quant à leurs agissements tout en assurant une supervision des organismes publics afin qu'ils soient crédibles et responsables au regard de l'ensemble des habitants.

Lived in Barcelona Spain for 9 years Bachelor Degree in English Lived in London England for 3 years Master Studies in English Certificate in Advanced French Grammar and Spelling I have been fascinated with languages since childhood and my career has been centered in languages resulting in 25 years of experience. At the age of 20, I packed my bags and moved to England with the sole purpose of mastering the English language. To this I added formal education in English at the University and Master levels. At 28 I moved to Spain where I mastered Spanish and Catalan. I have been translating and interpreting for over 15 years and I have held positions as a language instructor and private tutor in English, Spanish and French for over 18 years. I have always been dedicated to the value of continuous self-study and I have the personal library to prove it! While anybody with my skills is capable of translating a wide variety of subject matter, I recognized that specializing in a specific field offers a greater value for my clients. Legal translation is my specialization of choice. I have been translating legal documents consistently now for over 8 years (mainly contracts, agreements...). However, I have been specializing in the translation of technical documents as well (Mining industry and mechanical translations more precisely) and last but not least, in orthotypography so that your documents are written and formatted in accordance with the French rules. Beyond excellent translation skills, I bring you excellent service! My experience as a business owner, executive secretary, and corporate translator has taught me the value of consistently delivering excellent service. I pride myself on my track record of satisfied clients, my insistence on quality and my ability to pull an all-nighter to get the job done on time. As I continue to invest in myself professionally, I am also investing in you and the level of service and satisfaction you will receive when you work with me.
