Which item is included in an HSC's Rules of Procedure?

• A. Name of the Committee
• B. Product pricing strategy
• C. Local zoning laws
• D. Payroll schedule

Answer: (B)

Rules of Procedure are the formal guidelines that establish how a committee operates—its identity, authority, and how meetings and decisions are conducted. The item that fits here is the name of the committee. Including the name gives the document clear identity and scope, so everyone knows exactly which body the procedures apply to and under what authority they govern actions and decisions.

The other options fall outside this scope. A pricing strategy is a business policy or strategic plan, not a procedural rule. Local zoning laws are external legal requirements that a committee must follow, but they aren’t part of the internal rules that dictate how the committee conducts its work. A payroll schedule concerns compensation administration and HR policy, not how the committee runs meetings or makes decisions.
