Which of the following is NOT a ground for removal?

• A. Does not have qualifications at the time of taking office.
• B. Does not maintain qualifications during service.
• C. Is ineligible for membership.
• D. Volunteering to chair a committee.

Answer: (D)

The key idea is that removal from a board position is based on lack of qualifications or ineligibility, not on voluntary leadership activities within the board. If someone does not have the required qualifications when they take office, or if they fail to maintain those qualifications during service, or if they are ineligible for membership, those are legitimate grounds for removal. Volunteering to chair a committee, however, is simply taking on a governance role and does not by itself indicate disqualification or misconduct. Therefore, volunteering to chair a committee is not a ground for removal.
