It meets three times a year and is responsible for strategic planning, overseeing the Brigade's finances, appointing salaried staff and approving changes to the Brigade Rules. The Brigade Council is chaired by the Governor who is the de facto chair of the trustees.For more information on the Brigade's structure and organisation, please click on the following link: document Brigade Rules Revised 20 March 2012 .
