"Parliamentary law" (i.e. the procedures used by deliberative assemblies to make decisions in meetings) is separate from the legal matters that lawyers are trained in.[citation needed] Generally, lawyers are not necessarily also parliamentarians, or experts in meeting procedures.[citation needed] As a result, this association was formed to connect the two fields. Only individuals who are both lawyers and parliamentarians could be members in this organization.[4]
