(c) Policy determining body means any body which is convened by the parent labor organization or other labor organization which is composed of delegates from labor organizations and which formulates policy on such matters as wages, hours, or other conditions of employment or recommends or takes any action in the name of the participating labor organizations. Such a body includes, for example, a district council, area conference or joint board. Every labor organization which has or assumes trusteeship over any subordinate labor organization shall file with the Office of Labor-Management Standards within 30 days after the imposition of any such trusteeship, a trusteeship report, pursuant to §408.3, together with a true copy thereof, signed by its president and treasurer, or corresponding principal officers, as well as by the trustees of such subordinate labor organization. [28 FR 14387, Dec. 27, 1963, as amended at 50 FR 31309, Aug. 1, 1985] On and after the effective date of this section, every labor organization required to file an initial report under §408.2 shall file such report on United States Department of Labor Form LM–15 entitled “Trusteeship Report” in the detail required by the instructions accompanying such form and constituting a part thereof.

If in answer to Item 9 of Form LM–15, there was (a) a convention or other policy determining body to which the subordinate organization sent delegates or would have sent delegates if not in trusteeship or (b) an election of officers of the labor organization assuming trusteeship, Form LM–15A should be used to report the required information with respect thereto. [42 FR 59070, Nov. 15, 1977] During the continuance of a trusteeship, the labor organization which has assumed trusteeship over a subordinate labor organization, shall file with the Office of Labor-Management Standards on behalf of the subordinate labor organization the annual financial report and any Form T–1 reports required by part 403 of this chapter, signed by the president and treasurer or corresponding principal officers of the labor organization which has assumed such trusteeship, and the trustees of the subordinate labor organization on Form LM–2. [28 FR 14387, Dec. 27, 1963, as amended at 68 FR 58448, Oct. 9, 2003] During the continuance of a trusteeship, the labor organization which has assumed trusteeship over a subordinate labor organization, shall file with the Office of Labor-Management Standards on behalf of the subordinate labor organization any change in the information required by part 402 of this chapter in accordance with the procedure set out in §402.4. [63 FR 33779, June 19, 1998] Each labor organization which has assumed trusteeship over a subordinate labor organization shall file within 90 days after the termination of such trusteeship on behalf of the subordinate labor organization a terminal financial report, and one copy, with the Office of Labor-Management Standards, on Form LM–2 and in conformance with the requirements of part 403 of this chapter. There shall be filed at the same time that the terminal trusteeship financial report is filed a terminal trusteeship information report on Form LM–16. If in answer to Item 6 of Form LM–16, there was (a) a convention or other policy determining body to which the subordinate organization sent delegates or would have sent delegates if not in trusteeship or (b) an election of officers of the labor organization assuming trusteeship, Form LM–15A should be used to report the required information with respect thereto. [40 FR 58856, Dec. 19, 1975] Each individual required to sign a report under this part shall be personally responsible for the filing of such report and for any statement contained therein which he knows to be false. Every person required to file any report under this part shall maintain records on the matters required to be reported which will provide in sufficient detail the necessary basic information and data from which the documents filed with the Office of Labor-Management Standards may be verified, explained or clarified, and checked for accuracy and completeness, and shall include vouchers, worksheets, receipts, and applicable resolutions, and shall keep such records available for examination for a period of not less than five years after the filing of the documents based on the information which they contain. Every labor organization required to submit a report shall make available the information required to be contained in such report to all of its members, and every such labor organization and its officers shall be under a duty to permit such member for just cause to examine any books, records, and accounts necessary to verify such report. Inspection and examination of any report or other document filed as required by this part, and the furnishing by the Office of Labor-Management Standards of copies thereof to any person requesting them, shall be governed by part 70 of this title.
