    EC members have a certain but limited amount of legal ‘privilege’ when it comes to comment and they may be protected from  being held personally accountable for their decisions by EC insurance – but only up to a point.  It depends on the insurance policy but I think you will find that coverage often evaporates when they have knowingly and deliberately broken the by-laws (or any other laws, for that matter).   EC insurance is generally there ito protect EC members who have been party to decisions made in good faith.  I would check with your insurance providers what happens when they have been given valid warnings that they are doing the wrong thing and have chosen to ignore them.
