A futures association must provide a fair and orderly procedure with respect to disciplinary actions brought against association members or persons associated with members. These rules governing such disciplinary actions shall contain, at a minimum, the procedural safeguards contained in section 17(b)(9) of the Act. In addition, an association, in disciplining its members should demonstrate that it will:
(a)Take vigorous action against those who engage in activities in violation of association rules;
(b)Conduct proceedings in a manner consistent with the fundamental elements of due process; and
(c)Impose discipline which is fair and has a reasonable basis in fact. (Approved by the Office of Management and Budget under control number 3038-0022) \[44 FR 20651, Apr. 6, 1979, as amended at 46 FR 63036, Dec. 30, 1981\]
