For tabular statement purposes (see 4.10, 6.07) returns shall be classified under:

1. resignations on the initiative of the member;
2. terminations of membership on the initiative of the area meeting;
3. resignations by or on behalf of children.

Area meeting clerks shall complete a footnote stating how many terminations under b are in each of the categories in 11.30 and how many under c are on the initiative of the area meeting. It is therefore important that minutes recording the termination of membership be specific.
