Any member whose subscription is outstanding for more than three months after the due date for payment shall cease to be a member of the Council, provided always that the Committee shall reinstate such a persons membership on payment of the outstanding balance and any outstanding amount for the current membership year and on any other such terms as the Committee deems fit.

To be eligible for honorary life membership, an individual shall have made a contribution of lasting importance and have a record of active involvement in the Industry.
The honorary life membership should not be conferred simply as a reward for longevity or passive committee or organizational activity.
Honorary life membership recognizes an accumulation of many years of service.
Normally, the individual should have made a contribution to SATA/TCSA and it should have been of more than limited achievement.
Under extraordinary circumstances, however, an honorary life membership may be awarded to an individual who has made an outstanding contribution in the interest of the industry and who is known and respected throughout the Industry.
The honorary life membership should recognize an individual contribution rather than an individual representing the accomplishments of many.

The recipient will be presented with a plaque proclaiming the honor.
