The Rule Committee proposes the following amendments to the League rules to the Management Committee for adoption, consequent upon amendments to the FIDE Law adopted in 2008: (a) In rule 8.12, delete the words Article 12.2b and replace with Article 12.3b. (b) In rule 10.1(a), at the commencement of the square brackets, delete the words APPENDIX A1(a) OF THE LAWS OF CHESS STATES:- and replace with FIDE Guidelines in case a game needs to be adjourned state:-. (c) In rule 12.1(b) delete the words the position shall be set up and the clocks shall be adjusted as prescribed by Appendix A5 of the Laws of Chess, and replace with the words the position immediately before the sealed move shall be set up on the chessboard, and the times used by each player when the game was adjourned shall be indicated on the clocks. The inserted words are a direct transcript of the section of the Laws originally referenced in the present rule; in view of the nebulous status of the adjournment guidelines in the present Laws I feel it would be desirable to incorporate the rule directly rather than by reference. 2. At a previous meeting the committee discussed the desirability of amending rule 6.2 to cater for the unavailability of the Hon Gen Sec. The Rules Committee proposes the following : At the end of rule 6.2 add the words: In the absence of the Honorary General Secretary these powers may be exercised by the President, and if he also be absent by the Chairman of the Rules Committee. 3. At the meeting on 19th April the committee agreed that a rule discouraging teams defaulting matches should be introduced. The committee agreed that the maximum number of matches defaulted should be two and then on the third match default the team should excluded from the competition. Therefore the Rules Committee proposes that in section 15 of the Competition Rules add the following. 15.4 When a team has defaulted three matches then that team will be deemed to have retired from the competitions and rule 15.2 will apply.
