SGI by-laws

In 1966, the SGI by-laws [which remain in effect] were further changed so that:

1. - The president is also the “official representative” of the Gakkai.
2. - He is manager of all its affairs.
3. - He has the power to convoke the Leaders Meeting (of all 21 responsible officials).
4. - He appoints and dismisses all the other responsible officials.
5. - He appoints and dismisses all the vice-general directors, the directors and all “other necessary officials.”
6. - He holds office for life.
7. - He chooses his own successor.
