Should this correspondence have been discussed by committee?

An email was sent by a club member to our chairperson about an incident which involved the chairperson at our club, but which would need committee resolution.

The email was forwarded by the author's wife to the committee and was therefore discussed by the committee. A statement coming from the comittee was that personal correspondence should not have been in the form of a personal email to the chair, but by correspondence directed through the secretary to the committee.

The author has now asked the committee to retract their statement since as it was personal correspondence to the chairperson, it should not have been discussed by the committee.

Is the author correct or incorrect with what they say?

    It depends entirely on the Constitution of your club, but generally the matter should have been in the minutes of the next meeting so the full committee could discuss the allegations.
