Internal Structure
The headquarters of the LNU were located variously at Buckingham Gate and Grosvenor Crescent, Westminster. In the 1940s they moved to smaller premises in St Martin's Lane, WC2, for reasons of economy. The top organ of administration in the LNU was its General Council. The Council met twice a year and was responsible for LNU policy under its 1925 Royal Charter of Incorporation. Beneath the General Council sat the Executive Committee, which met every two weeks and co-ordinated all activity such as the LNU's campaigns and educational programmes, received reports from branches, monitored the output of specialist sub-groups and had responsibility for the LNU's staff. LNU branches had their own independent management structures.

Famous quotes containing the words internal and/or structure:
“I maintain that I have been a Negro three times—a Negro baby, a Negro girl and a Negro woman. Still, if you have received no clear cut impression of what the Negro in America is like, then you are in the same place with me. There is no The Negro here. Our lives are so diversified, internal attitudes so varied, appearances and capabilities so different, that there is no possible classification so catholic that it will cover us all, except My people! My people!”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
“Just as a new scientific discovery manifests something that was already latent in the order of nature, and at the same time is logically related to the total structure of the existing science, so the new poem manifests something that was already latent in the order of words.”
—Northrop Frye (b. 1912)
