CGOV.8:4.1 - Establish the information question and recipient

Identify what the recipient needs to know and why: consider a proposed act, exercise a vote, inspect a record, receive a periodic report or understand a material change. Distinguish a shareholder acting for itself from a director acting for the corporation when that changes access.

Use CGOV.1–CGOV.3 for unresolved corporate identity, rights or authority questions. ADM.2 helps identify the participants and relations in an administrative provision request. Reuse adequate answers already available.

Recover the applicable source of the duty or right, its subject, timing, recipient and any conditions. Check a claimed restriction against the same use. An unresolved question about how two rules interact goes to a person competent and authorized to settle it; a confidentiality label alone supplies no answer.
