The regulation stipulates that no Brother may hold more than one office within the Grand Lodge simultaneously. This rule aims to promote fair representation and prevent conflicts of interest within the organization. However, exceptions are made for individuals serving as Metropolitan, Provincial, or District Grand Masters, as well as Pro Metropolitan, Provincial, or District Grand Masters and Grand Stewards, who are permitted to hold one additional office concurrently. This provision ensures that key leadership roles can be filled without restricting the ability of experienced members to serve in multiple capacities, thereby enhancing operational efficiency within the Grand Lodge. Adherence to this regulation is essential for maintaining the integrity and functionality of Masonic governance.
